  Re: Idea for a new feature to help rotation of parts in Ldraw Cad software
 
(...) The rotation axis defines a rotation center and limits the rotation to one degree of freedom. It should be used in primitives that basically only have only one degree of freedom in rotation like pegholes and axleholes. This feature will avoid (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

Hy, As some of you might know, I'm currently implementing the possibility for a user defined rotation point in MLCad. This is the actual situation for the new version: From a menu/toolbar/shortcut the user can open a dialog where the type of (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad)

Stuffit Expander does the right thing with the self-extracting zips too. (at least I have seen it work more than once!) I don't have the full Stuffit package. It's an amazing little program. (it's also down with .gz and tar and who knows what else.) (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Idea for a new feature to help rotation of parts in Ldraw Cad software
 
The purpose is to define default rotation centers for parts. This can be defined by a directive placed in parts and primitives. The primitives that should contain the rotation center axis directive are: - axleholes - pegholes - studs - may be (...) (24 years ago, 23-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)
