  Re: Another question about LPub PLIs
 
(...) But.... can't you use BI GRAYED (or GREYED) I'm not sure which. This is what it is for. Even MLCAD doesn't quite always do what you'd like. LPub should do whatever MLCAD does. (...) Kevin (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

The hotlist is here: (URL) argue that IT ought to have uncertified subparts weighed a bit higher, I guess. (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) I think that would be nice but I am thinking they don't seem to, even though they do (URL) and you'll see the first part with uncertified subfiles is below at least some of the subfiles it contains. Yet it's hard to tell. I can't find the (...) (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Thanks for the info. I'll work on finding a way to display the steps without using Buffer Exchange. -Joel (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) No, that's a very good point. You're correct, that the subparts have to be certified first. I was really trying to advocate changing just the sort order of the parts tracker list (so that parts at the bottom of the page don't get ignored), not (...)

  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) Shouldn't subfiles sort *before* any part that actually uses them? Ie. no use certifying the part unless the subfiles are done first. -- Anders Isaksson, Sweden BlockCAD: (2 URLs) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Another question about LPub PLIs
 
(...) Hi Kevin, No, it's not quite what I meant. I'll try to use the images to describe the situation. Step 1: (URL) Two bricks are added. Shading as expected (none). Step 2: (URL) Plates are added. Shading still as expected (previous step only). (...) (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Another question about LPub PLIs
 
(...) In the 3rd step you are expecting the yellow 2x4 plates and the red 2x2 round plates to be greyed? But they are newly added in the step. To grey them you need to use BI GREYED. Kevin (...) (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

  Re: Stud5 and type 5 lines at edge of cylinders.

  Re: Another question about LPub PLIs
 
(...) I'm rendering at 2048x1536, so the size that the step images end up at when the minimum distance is 75000 is different to that of the parts images when they are rendered at 640x480 and a minimum distance of 75000. No, I am not seeing it switch (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Another question about LPub PLIs

  Another question about LPub PLIs
 
<snip> Hello again, I've come up with something else that I thought I'd mention. I ran my file through LPub last night, with the minimum distance for the steps set at 100000 (which, by the way, seems to be about what I need to fix my scale (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Bugs with the Parts Tracker

  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) There may be merit in somehow boosting the position of the subfiles themselves in the list (if it's true that people only work on the highest listed items and ignore the bottom stuff... I know it's true for me). Perhaps the more parts use an (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
