  Re: BFC inversion...
 
(...) No it isn't. (...) You are correct. CERTIFY, according to the BFC spec, is only allowed once in the file, before the first 'executable' line, on the very first BFC meta-statement. In fact, CERTIFY is *required* on that line. Steve (20 years ago, 6-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: BFC inversion...
 
(...) If so, then I missed it too (which is entirely possible!) I've never used CERTIFY at the beginning of a file, and TMK it's never been a problem. I use "BFC INVERTNEXT" where necessary, but no blanket CERTIFY statement. Is the inclusion of the (...) (20 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: BFC inversion...
 
(...) Also, is it now standard to repeat the 'CERTIFY' keyword on every BFC line? I thought CERTIFY was only useful once at the beginning of the file? I've been out of the loop, did I miss something? -Kyle (20 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: BFC inversion...
 
(...) Since you used a mirrored reference to the subfiles, you should not need the INVERTNEXT statements. (...) With 2D objects, you should flip & rotate them to show their front face, not use INVERTNEXT. Steve (20 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: I want to become a reviewer
 
Excellent post, Niels! :) (...) To expand on this- it's very good to keep edges grouped with polygons, but it's also nice (at least at the beginning of the file), to put the edges first.

  Interesting affect of alpha channels in POV-Ray
 
I've been playing with PNG transparency in POV-Ray and discovered an interesting effect. POV-Ray considers a ray that hits the backdrop as transparent, yet the color of the invisible backdrop still affects the rendering of the model. When (...) (20 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
