- Generate an HTML parts list for your model. (This should generate an accurate part count even for MPD files with multiple instances of sub-models, and arbitrary nesting. However, mirrored sub-models will generate mirror image parts for those parts that aren’t symmetric.) This uses Peeron for part images (with permission).

Looks great. Can you make submodel colors propagate to children for parts
marked as color 16?

- Light source direction can now be changed. There are nine pre-defined directions in the Preferences, plus you can rotate to any arbitrary direction by holding down shift and dragging with the mouse in the model view.

Very handy.

- LDView can now be used to generate thumbnails in Windows Explorer

Another great feature, but is there any way to change the settings (background
color, lights) used to make the thumbnails? --Bram

I thought it did, so if it doesn’t it’s a bug. Can you send me a model that
does this? (On a side note, one of your models that used color 16 for the main
model was one of the reasons I added the Default Color setting way back when.)

It uses the “Thumbnails” preference set. I forgot about the fact that this
tidbit isn’t in the help file yet. If it didn’t create the “Thumbnails”
preference for you automatically, go into LDView and create one yourself. Then
switch to that preference set, set it to have all the settings you want, then
switch away (so that you don’t accidentally mess with it in the future).
