(...) As it happens, the 3x3 matrix that LDView gives you when you do View->Show View Info isn't the camera matrix. It's the rotation matrix applied to the model around the model's centroid. Having said that, I can derive a camera matrix based on (...) (19 years ago, 4-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Does L3P support the gold-chrome color of coins, the bugle, the new 2x4 bricks, etc? I know that color 334 is recommended, but I don't use LGEO, and when I process a model through L3P color 334 comes out as sort of a dark orange and decidedly not (...) (19 years ago, 4-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Thanks to both of you. Just for me, I would be completely satisfied if LDView shows (and exports to clipboard) full 4*4 trafo matrix instead of 3*3 matrix as it does in current version. Then I am able to derive .pov trafo matrix by myself. Small (...) (19 years ago, 4-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
