Hi to all MLCad users.

I just found a realy serious bug in MLCad, I must say I don't know what I
did when I implemented the search-path feature but at least during testing
my mind completely failed and I didn't see any obvious bug.

I'm realy sorry about that!

However there is exactly one methode to get it working, doing anything
different from what is written below can cause MLCad to crash, or the
feature will simply not work at all.

The following scan order section in MLCad ini will work if ALL PATHS ARE
RELATIVE to the ldraw base directory. Any other path, also full paths will
not work. I believe the errors happened when I rewrote the stuff during
discussion about this feature.

Important also is that you insert a backslash after <LDRAWDIR>!

[SCAN_ORDER]
1 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>\Parts
2 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\Parts\s
3 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\P
4 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\P\48
5 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>\unoff\parts
6 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\unoff\parts\s
7 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\unoff\p
8 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\unoff\p\48

the example assumes that the directories listed are below your ldraw base
directory!

I'm going to release a patch release quickly.

Best regards,
   Michael

(...) I just did a quick test: [SCAN_ORDER] 1 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>\Parts 2 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\Parts\s 3 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\P 4 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>\P\48 5 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>\NewParts And the parts in NewParts showed up in MLCad without having to use Scan (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
