(...) Here's what I use when I'm rendering parts: camera { orthographic sky -y right -4/3*x location <100,-60,100>*100 look_at <0,20,0> angle 1 } Change the location and look_at to suit your tastes. Note that I multiply the location by 100. I work (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) If you just do a straight "L3P model.dat," then you're right; the whole model fits very nicely in the camera's view (though a little fish-eyed, I find). But if you switch the view to orthographic, the model can appear a bit off-center and (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) As long as you let L3P calculate the camera distance, the whole model should be visible, and (mostly) fill the frame. I just copied the L3P auto-camera algorithm into LDView, and it works consistently for me with camera angles ranging from 0.1 (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) I could go for that. Simpler is better! Of course that means the METALLIC (or PEARLY) tag needs an argument to define the color of the embedded bits. If you want it to be the same color as the substrate, just use the same color code. Don (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I've been keeping clear on the dither issue so far, because I didn't have a strong opinion one way or another. However, the more I think about it, the more I think we're not seeing the forest through the trees. Because of this, I vote we (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
