Command Line Rhino File Conversion Tool

CADMATIC Hull includes a command line tool for converting Rhino files to eBrowser models for eShare use: rhino2ebmx (rhino2ebmx.exe).

The executable is located in the Hull installation folder, subfolder \nupashull\windowsNT\ncgbin64. For example C:\CADMATIC\CH242\nupashull\windowsNT\ncgbin64.

The rhino2ebmx tool can be run independently of Hull in the Windows Command Prompt window.

Using the rhino2ebmx Tool

When converting Rhino files to .ebmx files, use the following syntax:

rhino2ebmx [option] --input=<path>

The input option is obligatory and its value can be any valid file path.

The following options are also available:

  • --output=<path> – Set the output path. If the path is not given, the output file equals the input file with the extension replaced by .ebmx.
  • --overwrite – Allow overwriting the output file. If the output file already exists, the tool will not read or export anything, unless the --overwrite option is also given.
  • --debug[g[g]] – Display debug information. Each additional g in the command produces more output.
