(...) Just slightly on-topic... I have done some semi-serious experimenting on my very old LDD program (LDD - here: "LDraw Draw" and *not* "Lego Digital Designer"!) My old program was not bad in many senses, but a disaster since you aren't even able (...) (18 years ago, 17-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I just wrote a plugin for LDDP (LDraw DesignPad) which does 'SyncEdit'. If you have seen the later versions of the Borland IDE, you know what I mean, if you haven't, it's like this: You select a part of a program and click the SyncEdit button. (...) (18 years ago, 17-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Okay. My point list now only shows the points of the polygons, not of the primitives. But if I implemented primitives, it would just add these points to the list. When I modify one, these point's wouldn't be affected because - as you said - (...) (18 years ago, 17-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yes, primitives are important. In my program, you can add them just like any other part. I already implemented moving and I wanted to add scaling and rotating, but I did not understand the rotation matrix command. Could anyone explain that to (...) (18 years ago, 16-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad)

Hi Kevin, (...) You are completely right. Such a GUI editor is a program I was always looking for (and - unfortunately- I still am). But for two years I have been programming on a little editor to do things like that. My programming skills are not (...) (18 years ago, 16-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad)
