4- When I exported to LDraw and looked at the parts list it had unused in some
of the colors??  Why does that happen?

I ran into this too while betatesting.

If you were using, for example, MLCad, it might be a problem with the color
definitions that MLCad is aware of. Bricksiac is getting its color info from the
ldconfig.ldr file in the install dir, I think. Not sure where MLCad gets it from

Hope that helps. (Bricksiac is slick stuff!... thanks Bob for making it
available)

Larry,

I looked into what you said and it is correct: Bricksiac is using the
ldconfig.ldr file in it's installed directory and MLDraw is using a file named
the same ldconfig.ldr in it's installed dirctory.

Then if one of the other has a different or variation of a color there are
problems.

It seems the best solution would be to have Bricksiac look at the MLCad file.

Bricksaic is using the ldconfig.ldr in it's directory but the problem with the
unused colors seems to be that MLcad does not recognize the following colors:
Reddish_Brown, Stone_Gray, Dark_Stone_Gray, and Dark_Green.  there may be more
colors that i have not found yet.  Not really 100% sure where the problem is,
have not had time to fully investigate.

I may be making a false claim and it could all be my fault.

(...) Xposted to cad.mlcad Perhaps Michael L. could speak up about whether MLCad reads that file, what the proper superset of colors ought to be and other topics. (19 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
