  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) Neat. Can you explain what you mean by povray include file? A separate file from the model generated by L3P, that contains color definitions? How do you prevent L3P from replacing your custom colors with the default gray, as it does with other (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) Actually, in conjunction with Bricksmith's "Export Steps" option, LDView could be used to render each step (since each step is exported as a separate file). As recently discussed here, it is possible to run the current version of LDView on (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDView 3.1 on Mac OS X!
 
(...) Absolutely. Before I started using LDView and realized that Bricksmith could also use its Unofficial folder, any and all unofficial files I downloaded just got dumped in parts. To chime in on the filename length issue, my LDraw folder got real (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) I find it easier just to use a different colour for bleys so I can set it up properly in a povray include file. I always use 263 for dark bley but don't yet have a standard for light bley. Tim (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) My apologies if true. I was going off Steve's assertion in the LUGNET posting I linked to -- I haven't used L3P myself (only LDView). -- joshua (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDView 3.1 on Mac OS X!
 
(...) As a user (and a programmer; though I've yet to do any work on LDView), I prefer the way Travis is doing things. Not that that makes it right; I'm just saying that you can't (and shouldn't) lump the users and the programmers into two competing (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) Correct. As I noted in my other reply, the only way I've been able to render those colors (and a few others) with L3P/POV-ray is to replace the color codes with their 0x02RRGGBB style equivalents, and that's not really the most desirable (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)

--snip-- (...) L3p doesn't support it as far as I can tell... in fact L3P refuses to give bley or dark bley any colour at all. --snip-- Tim (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) Hi Lutz, most excellent to see some questions from you; it's been a long time since we've conversed. (...) The LDRAW "group" (if you will) has created a color standard in ldconfig.ldr, a text file describing common settings to be used by LDRAW (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: colors completeness
 
(...) I think it would be nice if Bricksmith read the ldconfig.ldr file to load color definitions, or if it offered a pane in the preferences or color picker to define new colors. Best of all, if it had an interface like that to read and update (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
