(...) Travis, I have *had to add* support for blanks in LPub, because so many kids expect to be able to use them. Unfortunatly, kids won't read the spec, they will just do what comes naturally. I'm an old goat, so I'm personally not a fan of blanks (...) (17 years ago, 28-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) I agree, and believe that both my proposed "sample matrices" as well as Tim's "transformation equation" will go into the final spec. --Travis (17 years ago, 28-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Actually, SGI released OpenGL in 1992, and (according to ldraw.org) James released LDraw in 1995. So OpenGL predates LDraw by 3 years. (...) Good point. You are correct that -y is "up". I don't see that anywhere in the spec, and it's quite (...) (17 years ago, 28-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Let me restate the above.....because I think I'm wrong about the timeline. LDraw is a stand alone specification, so what OpenGL expects is not relevent. The LDraw specification must specify what its coordinate and matricies formats mean, (...) (17 years ago, 28-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Rob, Not to be indelicate, but LDraw was around *before* OpenGL. That said, I think the document *must* explicitly show something like this: a b c d e f g h i Furthermore I think the document must explain x, y and z. If I remember correctly (...) (17 years ago, 28-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I see in the stl2dat release notes for version 1.12 an options -o5 (which isn't in the documented options list above) that makes it generate convex optional edges (I think it means concave). That's probably why the inner part isn't smooth in (...) (17 years ago, 27-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) The current public version (1.12) of stl2dat set the face color to green or blue when the face contains degenerated triangles (with 2 or 3 coincident points) in the original stl file. This information can be used to clean the result file. I (...) (17 years ago, 27-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) It looks like the program used to convert these was not perfect. I’m bet we just need to add the correct edge-color and main-color to the areas that are green and blue. Gallagher (17 years ago, 27-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
