  Checking for bowtie quads?
 
Do anybody know of a simple algorithm for checking if a quad is of the "bowtype" kind? I.e. a quad where two of the edges cross each other. I understand that Lars C Hassing's L3P does this check, so perhaps he can help me? Thanks in advance! Fredrik (26 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  How long to ship from Utah?
 
Hi everyone! Recently my newphew won an eBay auction for an MISB 6349, Holiday Villa. We won the auction last Sunday and the item was shipped out last week on a Tuesday (I believe via USPS). Shipping was $4+$2 insurance. Sadly, the item has yet to (...) (26 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

(...) Lar's L3Input.cpp is in the latest ldglite source (which is available at the usual place). It contains the bowtie checking code and is quite nice. Don (26 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: L3PLiTE?
 
(...) It does take some extra time to load a big file but the speed increase later is well worth it. After doing the initial calculations, you only need to check the studs for the bricks you move so it's very fast. Leonardo (26 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)
