The naming convention is detailed in the Primtives Reference - (URL) these primitives are normalised with an outer radius of unity, the last four characters of the file you require will be derived from the first four decimal digits of the (...)

(...) That's almost there but it still includes that part in the camera position calculations so doesn't really leave me better off. This would still require copying the camera data over. I'll have a look at doing two passes and copying it over (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hello, I haven't used much torus primitives and I don't understand how to get the values to use them, yet. Now I am working on a part that needs an inner torus. The radius for the torus is 15 LDU The inner radius is 11 LDU What torus do I need, and (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) True, but IFNOTPOV produces "if(0)" statements that can very easily be replaced by "if(-1)" and all the commented out tracks will be uncommented again. I find that easier than copy and paste camera positions. /Tore (19 years ago, 14-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Everything inside IFNOTPOV won't show up in the POV file at all, so that would still require two passes (one with IFNOTPOV to generate the camera, and one without to have the correct scene). --Travis (19 years ago, 14-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) It's not what you're asking for, but I have code in an (unreleased) version of LDView that will put a POV camera into the clipboard based on the current view in LDView. It then lets you compose your view in LDView and simply replace L3P's (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Not quite. Currently, L3P uses the entire visible "model" to calculate the camera position (-cg? ) to fit it all in. I would like to keep this functionality, but be able to tell it to ignore certain parts, e.g. train tracks which will extend (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Is it too late to see a command for the new L3P to ignore a part/line when calculating the camera position/angle, but still render it in the final scene? Most of my renders are quite plane, but I'd prefer to have the railway track going beyond the (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
