On the toolbar in the right had corner you will find a green/white cylinder see if this has been toggled.

Thanks Danny!

So simple ... :D

I've got another question: I want to hide the original geometry (mesh) but when i do this in rhino the ghx cant find it. Is it possible to hide this from within grasshopper?

Grasshopper should find hidden objects, if that's not the case then it's a bug.

You can hide individual Grasshopper components through their context menus. Just disable the Preview item in the menu for each one you don't want to see.

Are you saying that when you use the Rhino Command Hide on the Mesh that the [Mesh] in GH turns orange?

Hi David and Danny,

I had allready found the preview on and of in the context menu. So ive switched off all i cant see.

When i hide the mesh in rhino', Grasshopper cant find it anymore. The component then turn to orange in the ghx file.

Hi Danny,

Here are the Rhino and GHX file.

I use a lunchbox component to import the meshes though.

Because the file was to big i left the right foot out of it.

Word of advice. Please don't have toggles set to True to activate bespoke components when you save files to send to other people. It freaks me out when I start getting things happening beyond my control.

There appears to be a Bug in the [Geometry Pipeline] David will need to look into this. In the meantime you can use Andrew's [Dynamic Pipeline] from his Human Plug-in which works as expected.
