Quickly export Rhino models to Blender and retain the layer structure in Rhino. The layers in Rhino will automatically be converted into collections or parent empty objects in Blender!
This extension requests the following permission:
Import/export OBJ from/to disk
What is the license for the RHP file (a Rhino plug-in)? There is no source for that plug-in available, so hard to say what is going in there without the ability check the source.
FWIW the license for the Rhino plug-in cannot be GPL since Rhino is closed source, but MIT or BSD would be fine.
There has been an update to the terms of service, where we added a "Branding" section to improve the presentation of extensions. Please check it out! https://extensions.blender.org/terms-of-service/
Could you avoid using Blender in add-on title? Thanks.
It is still unclear what the license for the Rhino plug-in is, nor is it clear from the repository what the license of the Blender add-on is.
Using __name__
to lookup add-on preferences is no longer valid,
see: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/advanced/extensions/addons.html#user-preferences-and-package
Checking the code:
This extension assumes the add-ons directory is writable (which may not be the case),
use bpy.utils.extension_path_user
to create a writable path for the extension, see:
https://developer.blender.org/docs/handbook/addons/guidelines/
Ref get_default_objpath

Hey everyone,
Just a heads-up about a recent change regarding the licensing of add-ons on the Blender extension platform. Moving forward, all add-ons will need to be released under the GNU/GPL 3.0 license (SPDX:GPL-3.0-or-later). This is mainly to keep things simple and consistent across the board.
Previously, we accepted various licenses as long as they were compatible with Blender’s distribution. However, to avoid any confusion and streamline the process, all add-ons using the bpy API should now be presented as GPL 3 (the same license the Blender bundle is distributed). Regardless of whether the original code was under GPL 2, or something else like MIT or ZLIB.
Existing add-ons versions won't be affected. However, new updates will need to comply to the revised requirements.
Thanks for understanding, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
