  Re: Ldraw/MLCAD question
 
This discussion about raised a suggestion for a nice feature for MLCad (and perhaps also for other LDraw building software): A possibility to filter all patterned bricks. And have this filter be enabled and disabled with a press of a button. (The (...) (21 years ago, 14-May-03, to lugnet.cad)
