screen they are harder to distinguish.
The main issue is with software developers having to make their application aware that the user might change the scale setting in Windows to make things appear bigger. When this setting is changed some things might change size, like fonts and forms, but other elements might not. If the developer didn't account for this he might set a form element in pixel size unaware that when this setting is changed, the text inside the element will scale, clipping it.
In Mac OS the problem is exactly the same. They can solve it more easily because they only have to support 2 types of resolutions, which one is exactly twice as big as the previous one, so you just have to scale everything 2x (1 pixel becomes 4), just like what i did in my previous post. The disadvantage of this is that you loose pixel density on older software. Windows might be installed in screens with many different resolutions so doing this might not be a good idea since scaling by other than whole numbers will make things look blurry. Cleartype already doesn't work that well even just scaling exactly 2x.…

t to work. I was getting an error message on the OSMshapes components. I searched the forums and followed these steps:Close your Grasshopper and Rhino.2) Restart your PC3) When it boots up again, in your Start menu's search box type: "UAC". Click on it, and a new User Account Control Settings window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".4) Completely turn off your Antivirus.5) Check once again if your access control to the C:\MapWinGIS_installation_folder\gdal-data\osmconf.ini file is still set to the values you previously reported in this post.6) Right-click on "Rhino 5" icon and then choose: "Run as administrator".7) When Rhino boots up, run Grasshopper, and open the newest create_3dbuildings_trees_streets.gh file from here.This got the script to work and eliminated all of the error messages. The thing is... The omsconfig file's settings switch back after a some time passes, so I have to keep going back to change them. Also If I don't right click on rhino and choose "open as an adminstrator" the script won't work. I'll get those same error messages when I open Rhino normally. I'm also not super comfortable turning off my antivirus software during the time that I am working.Are there more permanant solutions that I can employ without going through these steps every time?
Thanks,
Robert…
combination is nearly 0 (of course with 1 try). You have about 100 (?) dimensions... its just impossible to do it well. Even with billions of random genotypes for 1st generation.
Its like 1:googol (10^100) to succeed. If youll try and run it on your pc, youll probably consume all the energy in universe, and it will take longer time than our universe will exist.
Sorry :(
EDIT : As David wrote in his post - every added dimension results with almost half of "success ratio". So as with one slider you have e.g. 1:2 ratio of success, with 100 sliders you have :
1:633825300114114700748351602688 (2^99)
To somebody more familiar with math -> correct me if Iam wrong :)…
ld be by no means a general benchmark of all arrays and lists, but it would give an idea of where List<T> and where T[] might be more appropriate.
Here is how you could set this up: on my PC, with 1'000'000 arrays/lists constructions and 50 inner loops on each, "arrays vs. list" has about 1:2 speed relationship, and "array vs. unknown length list" 1:9. You can test on your system and change the tests, too. If you do, remember to build in release mode and "Run without debugging".

bug. Have I missed the solution or is it something that you haven't been able to replicate?
I have been using Rhino 4 ever since at work but am able to use Rhino 5 at home with the same operating system (nearly Pro vs. Home Vista)
Any insight would be appreciated.
thanks

ceived the following error message when typing grasshopper into the command line. I am using parallels, and trying to do this through the evaluation version.
I am not usually very good with windows and therefore am unsure as to what the error message means.
Can anyone tell me what i have done wrong? Is there a way to use the mac version, save the file, then use it in the evaluation version?
thanks…

a machine that is light and very sturdy. I have taken my Macbook Pro all around the world, carry it with me every day, even dropped it a few times and its still totally fine. Its thin and light.
2) You get some actual support for your hardware even a few years down the line. My Macbook Pro is from 2012 and I can still walk in to any Apple Store and get help with it, which I have done many, many times in different places around the world - I never had to show a receipt or was charged any money for help. There is no PC/Laptop manufacturer in the world with anything close to that, because companies like Asus, Dell, etc. bring out dozens of new versions of laptops every year, so its much harder to service them after a few years.
3) This is the most important one, which usually people forget when they say that Macbooks are overpriced: Resale Value. If you have ever tried to sell an old PC/Laptop (I have a few times), you will know how little value they have even after just 2-3 years. Macbooks retain their value very well and even after 4 years you can still get 50% of your original price.
4) Of course you can install Windows on it and it runs perfectly. I have MacOS and Windows on it and both run absolutely fine. On the Windows side I have Rhino+GH, Maya and a few others. Having Windows is good, because some software still only runs on Windows (looking at you, 3DSMax!). Most other software also runs on MacOS. In the interest of sanity it is great to have an alternative to Windows for all the day to day stuff, like Mail, Calender, Photos, Presentations, etc. that just always works.
5) As for performance: Yes, Macbook Pros dont necessarily have the latest and greatest in graphics cards (the rest is on par with PC laptops), but unless you want to play games you will not need it. VRay RT can do GPU rendering, but you wont get great performance from a Notebook GPU anyways and it doesnt make sense to do rendering on a laptop (especially since you have a workstation). You could get one of the older Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013 or Mid 2014 models with the GTX750M by Nvidia, which will be usable to render using VRay RT, but of course not huge performance. Better to invest in a good used graphics card for your workstation like an Nvdia GTX980ti, which is the best value for money for GPU rendering right now (lots of used ones available).
So at least consider also getting a Macbook Pro. You can buy refurbished models (depending where you are) and they are like new, but a lot cheaper or even get an older one thats used. It will be a worthwile investment.
Take it from someone who has used dozens of PCs and Macs in my lifetime and have to do the IT support here at work (where we also use both).
I still have my Macbook Pro Retina from 2012 and its still running perfectly, super fast, and I can use Rhino and GH for huge files, do GPU Rendering with Octane Render and all sorts of other heavy computing stuff.
Hope that helps.…
