It’s possible to render text and dimensions in Vray for Rhino?
Does _TextObject in Rhino helps you?
No, at all, I mean the 2d text and dimensions, as is possible with the rhino cycles rendering
To my knowledge, it is not possible to render dimensions in V-Ray. V-Ray needs an object like a surface or mesh or nurbs to be able to render it.
If there is a way to convert those dimensions somehow to a volume or a mesh, then I think it should be possible to render them.
Is Chaos not going to support it in future versions?
My customers have made the same request.
I dont’ this this feature, but I found this on the rhino forums which might help anyone interested:
Render rhino Dimension Text and curves - Rendering / V-Ray - McNeel Forum
Explode the dimension which will result in text and curves, then explode the text to get curves. You can create planar surfaces on the on the text curves and dimension arrows/ends, and piping the curves will give you something to add material to.
That forum post is for Rhino Render and doesn’t work for V-Ray.
It is possible to decompose dimensions into curves and reconstruct them into renderable opuses, but this is too cumbersome. It is not a task for artists.
