(...) In my other message, I indicated that overlapping polygons will be visible on transparent parts in viewers such as LDView. However, if it is decided that they are ok, it seems to me that you'd be much better off in this instance just using a (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I don't know what the policy is (or if there is one), but I will point out that it will likely cause artifacts in any transparent parts in any viewer that supports blended transparency (such as LDView). The overlapping sections will get drawn (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

Hello, Try splitting the engine and lego compressor into separate circuts. That way you don't use all your pressure on each switch. I split my six pump compressor and scissor lift into 2 circuts one for each switch and it dramatically increased (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jul-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think LDDP does already have support for *one* configurable external program. Put a %0 in the args list to make LDDP pass the name of the temp file to the external program. I used to add a -p to the args list to tell ldglite to poll the file (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Well, hurry up with the Dark Red Hogwarts Express. It's a gorgeous train. I was just hunting around online and did not find any good shots. Apparently the train always missed the cameras at last week's Philly show. __Kevin Salm__ LUCNY (20 years ago, 16-Jul-06, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I have used similar techniques a few times now, and the parts have not been held because of it. As far as rendering, most programs seem to be able to handle it ok, so I don't think it should be a reason to hold the part. ROSCO (20 years ago, 15-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Can a LDDP plugin get the name of the current file? AFAICS it's only given the contents of the editor buffer (or just the selection). Without the file name there's no way to do any polling, and when it's given the selection only it's (...) (20 years ago, 15-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Good. (...) That's a problem with (or rather limitation in) the LDDP plugin interface. Plugins are expected to do *one* thing, and then return to LDDP. I don't know anything about the LDDP source, who's maintaining it, etc. (...) No. A plugin (...) (20 years ago, 15-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad)
