First head to the downloads page and download the correct installer for the correct OS (Windows or Mac) and modelling software (Rhino, SketchUp or Maya). In this article we will go over installation and uninstallation for Rhino and SketchUp as well as how to input the licence
Double-click the bella_rhino.rhi file.
The Rhino Installer will be shown, follow the instructions.
Mac -
Download the .dmg file (to your physical machine, not iCloud/etc) and double-click to mount it.
Right-click bella_rhino.macrhi file, choose Open With, and choose a version of Rhino.
Rhino will install the plugin.
As instructed, close Rhino and restart it.
Repeat steps 2-4 for any installed versions of Rhino.
Uninstalling
Windows -
Depending whether you chose to install for all users, the following folders may exist for each version of Rhino installed on the machine, and must be deleted:
C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\[version]\Plug-ins\Bella (813de3fb-18eb-405f-bfcd-b0b4d3da91fb)
C:\Program Files\Common Files\McNeel\Rhinoceros\[version]\Plug-ins\Bella (813de3fb-18eb-405f-bfcd-b0b4d3da91fb)
MacOS
Simply delete this file: ~/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/MacPlugIns/bella_rhino.rhp
You may not see this as the Library folder is hidden by default:
Click Finder menu > Go > Go to Folder.
In the box, enter ~/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/MacPlugIns and hit Enter.
Delete the bella_rhino.rhp file.
Repeat these steps with ~/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/8.0/MacPlugIns if necessary.
If deleting the plugin appears not to work, try emptying the trash, and possibly even rebooting, as MacOS has been known to happily continue to use items even after they have been trashed.
Download the .zip file and unzip it on your desktop.
Start SketchUp and click Window > Extension Manager.
Click Install Extension.
Browse & select the unzipped bella_sketchup-<version>-win.rbz.
The Bella toolbar should appear (if not see View > Toolbars).
Mac -
Download the .dmg file and double-click to mount it.
Start SketchUp and click Window > Extension Manager.
Click Install Extension.
Browse & select bella_sketchup.rbz in the mounted .dmg.
The Bella toolbar should appear (if not see View > Tool Palettes).
Uninstalling
In the extension manager window, under Manage, simply press uninstall.
