I've modified LPub to ignore submodel parts as well as primitives when
making PLIs and BOMs.
To address your request more specifically... LPub would have to look for
pairs of s/faxel1 through s/faxle5 and automatically substitute. I'd prefer
not to go this route.
My I offer this:
Surround the axle descriptions with:
PLIST BEGIN SUB "faxel1.ldr"
PLIST END
Then create a file called faxel1.ldr that contains the flex axle you want
with the color that you want. LPub will render that file and use it as the
part image.
In the meantime I will ponder the your request. It does have merit.
s/faxel1.dat though x/faxel5.dat are new to me. Shall I assume they are the
end pieces of sub-axels? Is it also safe to assume they are identical,
except that the name tells you the length of the axle? Are they official
sub-parts? If so, then I'll implement your request.

| (...) Hi Orion, I never got feedback from you about the PLIST BEGIN SUB solution outlined above. LPub recognizes parts synthesized with LSynth and tries to determine the part being synthesized. It recognizes flexible axles and determines the length. (...) (20 years ago, 4-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
