 ==== Right-Click Add Inputs =====
 Standard Rhino data types (e.g. b-reps, surfaces, curves, vectors, points, numbers, etc.) may be added to inputs of Grasshopper blocks by right-clicking on the label of a block's input.  This can help avoid cluttering the canvas with grasshopper components for all of the inputs.

 ==== Toggle Geometry Preview ====
-During visualization, Grasshopper's rendering of geometry can interfere with the clear display of the solution quantities.  Select the blocks whose geometry preview is interfering with the visualization.  Then use the middle mouse button to bring up Grasshopper's radial menu.  Select Disable Preview to turn off these blocks. {{:wiki:sns:intactgh:pasted:20220829-200351.png}}
