  Re: Restrict pars to LEGO set in MLCad?
 
(...) My LDList program (search for LDRAW parts) has the beginnings of this functionality, you can load a set list and only see the parts in that set, and the number of parts remaining, but it does not keep tab of different colours. Unfortunately (...) (19 years ago, 12-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Restrict pars to LEGO set in MLCad?
 
I would like to build some custom creations in MLCad that could be built using a paticular set. For example say take the LEGO set 7241 "Fire Car" and make a race car out of it. That way when I am done with the custom creations people will know they (...) (19 years ago, 12-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The Delphi library Graphics32 ((URL) can probably be used by C++Builder too. It contains lots of routines for graphics processing, for example downsampling. You can explore different methods there. (19 years ago, 10-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: I am Happy!!! (was Re: Transparent parts (small))
 
(...) I would suggest (at least initially) to keep it simple. Only support reduction by a factor of two, and then simply average each group of 4 pixels. This should produce a dramatic quality improvement, and be very easy to implement. --Travis (19 years ago, 10-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: I am Happy!!! (was Re: Transparent parts (small))
 
(...) I have finished a few things: 1. Syntax checking on LPUB meta commands. LPub stops, shows you the file, the line number, the failing portion of the line, what was expected, and the entire failing line. 2. Regularized LPUb syntax (ony a few (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: I am Happy!!! (was Re: Transparent parts (small))
 
(...) Thanks. For reference, Don (the person you're responding to) is the LDGLite programmer. Also, unless somebody comes up with some brilliant idea, I don't think the halo problem can be fixed in LDView or LDGLite. --Travis (19 years ago, 10-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: I am Happy!!! (was Re: Transparent parts (small))
 
(...) Believe me: this is the way I want it. (...) Antialiasing does indeed cause the halo effect. And no, it won't. What will however is create images at a higher resolution and scale those down in Fireworks or similar program. This will antialias (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LPub missing pages in the layout
 
(...) I consider this an LPub bug. I don't believe the spec says what is supposed to happen here. Kevin (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub missing pages in the layout
 
(...) I said I would figure it out.... LPub seems to accept "models" without the trailing STEP for image generation but NOT for the layout page generation. Is this an LPub bug or me not following the official spec (like many others I expect)? Thanks (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LPub missing pages in the layout
 
Ok, the next question (Which I bet I will figure out shortly) is why does LPub seem to miss out pages when generating the layout pages? It managed to generate all the images but seems to have only created html pages 3, 5, and 7-16. This appears to (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub callouts
 
(...) As usual, I figure this out 5 minutes after posting... It amalgamates all the steps into nice pages when you generate the layout. Sorry :( (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

  LPub callouts
 
Erm, am I missing something with regards to callouts? Can they only be used in some circumstances? I have created a model that has a few small sub parts so I wrap these in LPUB CALLOUT BEGIN and END. I go ahead and generate the images and html pages (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

"Kevin L. Clague" <kevin_clague@yahoo.com> schreef in bericht news:IHtHGK.1qr0@lugnet.com... (...) Following the steps I describe there are no PLI files in the images directory (due to step 2 I guess?) Any thoughts? Jaco (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: I am Happy!!! (was Re: Transparent parts (small))
 
(...) Hmmm, I don't know. While I think you've probably made the right choice selecting ldview (it's the better renderer), I don't think you're comparing the right stuff in those two pics. The "better" ldview pic doesn't display the halo problem (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: What about a LEGO TECHNIC tutorial
 
(...) The new unpublished LSynth deals with this without any extra information. I use and LDraw file to desribe how to translate/rotate parts to the assumed default position/orientation. LSynth limits pulleys and gears to be planar. It also assumes (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  New tutorial: How to easily rotate a group of parts in MLCad
 
Hi folks, rotating a group of parts in MLCad using its rotation point feature can be quite laborious: you have to enter co-ordinates, names, might deal with different points or tweak the exact position on-screen... This tutorial will show you an (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jun-05, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad.mlcad, FTX)
