3DM

This is the native Rhino file format, and VisualARQ just uses it to save and open files.

Rhino can import and export AutoCAD drawing (.dwg) files, supporting different AutoCAD schemes.  DWG is the native format for several CAD packages. 2D drawings created with Rhino and VisualARQ can be exported to dwg.

Other file formats

Rhino can import and export files to more than other 40 file types to exchange models with other software for different purposes. You can see all file formats supported in the following link: https://www.rhino3d.com/formats

External references

Insert files of any compatible format into the Rhino model as external references so other users can visualize and develop parts of the same project. Linked and embedded files can be updated from the Block Manager after any change of the original file.

Worksessions

The Worksessions let more than one user work on a large project. By breaking the project down into many files, one user can edit a part of the project while another user edits a different file. Only one user can have a file open for editing, but many users can see it.
