  Re: New Colors
 
(...) Ah, yah. Look at (URL). Search for "dither". The dithering stuff is buried in question 20, under the sub-heading "Colours". The subheadings under question 20 should be included in the TOC, I think. And the bit about linetype 1's format should (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
Yup, that'd be why. ;-) Actually, those one-digit numbers are in reality *two*-digit numbers, prefaced with a zero, but since the zero in question is invisible, you don't see it. ;-) Franklin (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) My impression has been that the extra space preserves alphabetical listing by description, so that Brick 2 x 4 comes before Brick 2 x 10. Another gadfly, Dave! (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization
 
(...) I registered leocad.org at www.domainmonger.com for $17/year. A guy from work registered a domain for $3/year but they add an annoying frame with ads, I don't think it's worth it but if you want I can get the address for you. Leonardo (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  New LeoCAD version
 
Hi, After a long time I decided to pack a new version for you, sorry for the long delay. Several fixes and a few new features, here's the list of changes: · Fixed rotation bug. · Fixed a bug when you insert a piece after a rotated piece wouldn't (...)

  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) I'm guessing it's so they'll sort in human readable format... ie: brick 1 x 1 brick 1 x 2 brick 2 x 10 brick 2 x 12 would be instead (in computer numeralical order (as i like to call it when i complain to dan)) brick 1 x 1 brick 1 x 10 brick 1 (...)

  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) Because of parts like "baseplate 16 x 16" which need two character spaces? Without the padding you'd get ragged listings in monospace font reports. Just a guess, I am just a gadfly here. ++Lar (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) in addition.. something that I've been curious about.. why are the names (descriptions) in this format?: [type] <space> # <space> x <space> <space> # why the second space after the times sign? I've removed it from some of my updated parts, (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
People, I've noticed a minor problem with the current way of naming/titling "petterned" parts. Here's a brief excerpt from PARTS.LST (sorted by Description): 3070.DAT Tile 1 x 1 2555.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Clip 3070DISP.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Computer (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  What Happened to my Primitives?
 
Due to my unrivaled computer savvy, I have managed to delete a few primitives from my p directory. Is there an easy way to download all the primitives but nothing else? I'd download just the ones I need, but I'm not sure which ones I've lost, (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 3069p25.dat, now POV-RAY friendly! ;-)
 
I forgot to mention that this needs two of the 1-4ring primitives: "1-4ring7.dat" and "1-4ring8.dat". Thanks, Franklin (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  3069p25.dat, now POV-RAY friendly! ;-)  [DAT]
 
I needed a POVRAY-friendly version of this for another project of mine, and I figured y'all might like this also. As long as I was "updating" the code, I also added some KEYWORDS and modified the Title to be more easily found. Please LMKWYT! Thanks, (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: New Colors

  Re: New Colors
 
(...) I think most people haven't *seen* the new sets yet, so it's a little early to pick color numbers. My recommendation: fire up your favorite graphics editor, and start playing with different RGB values until you find one you like. Then use that (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: someone mention my name?... (was "Re: Rubber Black")
 
(...) Yeah, you. I included you in because you'd been making comments about Paul's new parts, so you were 'in the vicinity'. BTW, every time I type your name, I have to restrain myself from calling you Frank. That's something I wouldn't have even (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization (was: License revision 1)
 
(...) I'm with James on this one. Keep ldraw.org as the domain name. Call the organization LDraw.org. The parts library should be the LDraw Parts Library. Usually when I say/write "LDraw", I'm using the term as shorthand for "the LDraw family of (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization
 
(...) That seems backwards to me. If "LCAD" is the all-encompassing term we want to use, then LDraw would be a subset of LCAD, and the 'proper' subdomain name would be ldraw.lcad.org (to go along with mlcad.lcad.org, etc). But that's working from an (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
