Scene Graph

Rook keeps a real-time shadow graph of every object in your Rhino model — a spatial sense of the scene. It’s how Rook can answer questions about where things are and how they relate, not just what they are.

“Rook knows where everything is, and how it touches.”

What it tracks

Section titled “What it tracks”
  • Shape classification — each object sorted into a recognizable type
  • Bounding-box metrics — size and extent of everything
  • Relationships — how objects sit relative to one another

It updates on a background thread using lock-free immutable snapshots, so reading the scene never blocks your modelling.

Classification profiles

Section titled “Classification profiles”
  • Architecture — wall · floor · column · beam · slab
  • General — vertical-planar · horizontal-slab · thin-vertical · compact

Eight relationships

Section titled “Eight relationships”

supports · contains · adjacent · near · above · intersects · inside · surrounds

What it enables

Section titled “What it enables”

Because Rook understands the scene spatially, you can ask things like:

“Which columns support this beam?”

“What’s near the entrance, and what’s inside the atrium?”

“Select everything above level 2.”
