(...) Steve's LDraw add-on has an inline function which allows you to choose which sub-models to inline. Note: I just "upgraded" to Windows 7, and some functions refuse to work, even after downloading comdlg32.ocx and richtx32.ocx. But the inliner (...) (15 years ago, 31-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) What we need for this is an file similar to LDraw.xml with the definition how a part should be rotatet to match the new origin. I also have thought about this problem a while ago. cu mikeheide and prosperious year 2010! (15 years ago, 31-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)

Hi Santeri, This is a very good idea! I have several models with pneumatics on my website, provided as mpd with embedded unofficial parts. By exploding them, you'll get both some old pneumatics parts and test models. (URL) I prepared an MPD that (...) (15 years ago, 31-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yes, that would be helpful. I had the need recently and solved it with MLCad (File -> export [ldraw normal] -> range=last step in main model). But it is error prone and not very convenient. Philo (15 years ago, 31-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)

A few years ago I found a way to export an LDR file that has several LDR files inside of it to a single LDR file. Then I could import this single LDR file into LDD. I think you could also export MPD to a single LDR file also, but that was not what I (...) (15 years ago, 31-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)
