RhinoArtisan for Mac is in development, and so is this documentation. Any part of it may be inaccurate or change as the product evolves.
User Interface
User folder
RhinoArtisan keeps everything that is yours in one folder on your Mac, the user folder, separate from the program. Updating or reinstalling RhinoArtisan does not touch it.
Open it
Run ArtisanOpenUserFolder, or click Open User Folder on the Artisan toolbar. It opens in the Finder.
What is inside
Among others:
| Folder | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Assets | The curves and profiles of the asset library, including yours. |
| Curator | Your Curator library of reusable pieces. |
| Boutique | Installed Boutique collections and components. |
| Report | Report templates and the report’s custom fields. |
| Templates | Document templates you save from RhinoArtisan. |
| Pricing | Your pricing profiles and your custom gem weight and metal tables. |
| Render | The materials and environments Render Studio offers. |
| TimeTracking | The time recorded per file. |
| Assistant | Your company standards and the conversation kept for each file. |
Move it
Choose another location in Rhino’s settings, Artisan › Folders › User folder, then restart Rhino. The Curator and Boutique libraries can be moved on their own in the same section. Existing files are not moved for you: copy them to the new place first.
Start again from the original files
ArtisanResetUserFolder restores the files that come with RhinoArtisan. It asks first, and keeps your current folder next to the new one, renamed as a backup, so no preset is lost.
