Unofficial Parts Path
Unofficial parts should not mixed with official part. Therefore the a quasi
standard has been established as follow:
Unofficial files should be stored in a directory structure like follows:
<LDRAWDIR>/Unofficial/P
<LDRAWDIR>/Unofficial/P/48
<LDRAWDIR>/Unofficial/PARTS
<LDRAWDIR>/Unofficial/PARTS/S
To use also this in MLCad you have to add that in MLCad.ini
[SCAN_ORDER]
1 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Parts
2 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>Parts\s
3 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>P
4 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>P\48
5 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\Parts
6 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\Parts\s
7 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\P
8 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\P\48
This is not an official document!
As today the file header of an official part has a flag that indicates that this
file is official I think this is a good solution.
I wrote this to have a documentation summary what has been discussed in many
articles that are not easy to find.

| (...) This is a nice tip, thank you. Yes, I agree that it would be nice to be able to arbitrarily enable/disable/set/configure the paths LDraw (ok, maybe not ldraw.exe and ledit.exe per se) uses to search for parts. Mike (14 years ago, 22-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)
