(...) I would appreciate it if the blocking was turned off. Alternately, if ML-CAD allows colors to be set via ldconfig.ldr, that would be good for me. Truthfully, I haven't even checked for this support; I don't have time right now. Steve (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad)

Wedge part 45407 (Wedge 4 x 4 with 1 x 4 Side Plates) has similar sloped sides as wedge parts 43720 and 43721 [LDrawPart 43721]. When I examined these parts in LDView, I noticed that the control points for the conditional lines on the sloped surface (...) (20 years ago, 16-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
