Umi | First steps¶
Requirements¶
UMI is a plugin for Rhinoceros3D version 6. It only runs with Rhino 6 for Windows 64 bit.
Opening/Creating a project¶
When working with UMI projects, it is important to use the umi functions and NOT the Rhino commands for “Opening” and “Saving” a project. Umi creates it’s own file system (*.umi) which is a package containing all relevant files and data needed for a project.
To create a new project, simply click on the UMI button and select “open project” or “new project” and browse to the folder location of your choice. Once a project has been opened.

Important: Working units must be in Meters. To change them, in Rhino, go to > File — Properties — Units — Model Units : Change to “meters”
