(...) 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 (25 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) 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 (25 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | 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 (25 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | Time for BFC overhaul?
|

Now that MLCad is supporting BFC, should we begin overhauling the parts database to take advantage of this? I'd be interested in working on this for a while. What is the status of the meta-command discussion? How close are we to closure? -John Van (25 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I didn't see it, but I didn't look really hard at the windows specific code since I'm bypassing it for something more portable. If you still have the code I could try to paste it in with the other two formats. Don (25 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
