There click on Install button, and browse for Auxpecker.dll. Next, open Rhino and go to Tools->Options->Plug-ins. Installation is easy, just extract the AuxPacker directory from the zip file you downloaded and put it in C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 4.0\Plug-ins\. At the time I’m writing this, the web site doesn’t work, and I’m not quite sure why, so if it still doesn’t work download AuxPecker 1.0 here. Next thing is a plugin called AuxPecker 1.1 (update: thanks Riccardo for a new link – now, free registration required for downloading). Hit Apply, and you’re ready to start Rhino. So, if 8x doesn’t work well for you, try lowering it. On some graphics cards this can be a drag, but I believe you already know that setting AA is going to slow down your graphics performance. Then under Antialiasing – Mode choose Override any application setting, and under Antialiasing – Setting choose 8x. So, click on the Add and browse for rhino.exe (you can usually find it in C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 4.0\System\ directory). In the Program Settings tab you will have to add application. There, under 3D Settings, go to Manage 3D settings. So, lets first head out to our Control Panel, and find there our NVIDIA Control Panel. Now, I’m not sure how to achieve this with ATI cards because I don’t have one, but I’m sure there are similar options. There are some Test commands in Rhino v4 that I will not use, but rather will use graphic card setting in windows control panel.

Ok, so starting point would be setting the Antialiasing level in Rhino. 3dm file and therefore if you don’t save it you will lose your settings, and Rhino Options are saved everytime you exit Rhino, so if your Rhino crashes your settings will not be saved, and if you reinstall Rhino you will lose your settings and templates. Important: Templates settings are saved in a Rhino. Templates define, among other settings, how many layers you have, what the names of them are, and every layer option (material, color, line weight, line type…) dimension properties like global scale, dimension numbers, sizes, arrow types etc, and grid settings. Template is like your own workspace, and you are prompted to select one of predefined templates every time you open your Rhino, or select File->New menu option. But we will focus on the viewport mainly. From user interface options like colors and viewports to settings for rendering mesh quality.

This dialogue can be accessed through menu Tools->Options. First I’d like to differentiate two things that I will be using and changing here. I don’t know if this can be called a step, but never mind that now.
