  Re: White noise around model with colored background
 
(...) Ok, I had a little time over the weekend to spend with the Red book, and I think I may have it now. Hopefully not too late to make it into LDView version 3.0 RC 2. ;^) So to eliminate the halo, what we want to put around the image edges of the (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

Version 2.4.0.0 New Features: LPub now checks for syntax errors in LPub meta commands. LPub supports either horizontal or vertical packing for mult-step pages. LPub now recognizes multiple parts listed between callout begin/end. A new meta-command (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)  
 
  Re: LPub missing pages in the layout
 
(...) It was missing trailing STEPs that was the problem. I'll see if I can recreate it tonight. (19 years ago, 17-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub missing pages in the layout
 
(...) Dean, I tried to recreate this, by adding trailing steps to all my models/submodels in pedmatic, and it didn't cause any problems. If you can recreate this it would be a great help to me. Kevin (19 years ago, 17-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub problems
 
--SNIP-- Thanks for all that. I noticed something else but need to test it more (and probably look through .cad in depth again) but when I use 0 LPUB PAGE PLI NO at the start of my file, no layout images get generated at all. I may be misusing it or (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LPub building instruction progress
 
(...) Are you drawing in the same *direction*? LineTo(x,y) draws a line upto >>but not including<< <x,y>. This is a thing of the Windows API that's always been there (since Win 1.0). The same goes for rectangles, I think. (I think the LPub results (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub building instruction progress
 
(...) Very cool, Jaco! (...) I'm not quite sure why Borland's graphics routine does this. I use the exact same points to draw the triangles and the lines. (...) Yes, this is a bug, and it is in the area that I has just been heavily rewritten. If you (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LPub building instruction progress
 
Kevin (and others interested), Take a look at this: (URL) you can imagine by now, I am quite happy about this result :-) Though I have two points I like to do better: 1. There is a "halo" effect arount one of the pointers of the callout in step 8 2. (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Callout a single part  [DAT]
