(...) be that (...) a way I (...) angles. I (...) a weird (...) Oh yeah, its fun turning the 3D view. I use the following process 1) right click the 3d window and select zoom to fit 2) click and hold on the very bottom point of the model 3) move (...) (20 years ago, 11-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New to MLCad - some questions
 
One more thing: in the views, can I zoom in and just see the part where I am working? Sure can, just how? (20 years ago, 11-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New to MLCad - some questions
 
(...) This takes a lot of getting used to. The problem is that when you rotate the plate 90 degrees, the arrow keys continue to work as though it was stud up - left moves it 1/2 stud left, up moves 1/2 stud back etc, instead of 1 plate or whatever (...) (20 years ago, 11-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  New to MLCad - some questions
 
1: The grid: When placing components as normal, I dont have any problems. But when I tried to use the light holder and adding a light to it (just as the example car, with 1x1 plate on the 1x1 brick sideways), I am lost. I cannot get it to snap, nor (...) (20 years ago, 11-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)

  Do you remember what LDraw.org looked like back in 1999?
 
Doing a mindless internet surf today and bumped into a website that is archiving the internet! So I decided to give it a try and typed in www.ldraw.org and look what I got. (URL) Enjoy... BTW the website is called: WayBack Machine (URL) -AHui A&M (...) (20 years ago, 11-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: New colours in Ldraw?
 
(...) That doesn't mean dithered colours cannot be used in a part, just that any area that requires such should be devolved into a subpart. There are plenty of examples of this technique in the official library - e.g. 973p39.dat Chris (20 years ago, 10-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  RE: New colours in Ldraw?
 
(...) Ah, but according to the Colour Chart ((URL) "LDraw can render mixes of the basic 16 colors. This is commonly called 'dithering'. You can use dithered colors for any part reference, but part authors cannot use them to color polygons or lines. (...) (20 years ago, 10-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New colours in Ldraw?
 
(...) I understand your point, but I think that it's a bad idea to release an official part that's guaranteed to look wrong in all current renderers. All that's going to do is confuse the novice users, and I think that's a really bad idea. I'm not (...) (20 years ago, 9-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
