Hello to everybody! I am modelling the firt model of the set #8274 with MLCad.

(...) Moving things manually a long distance is cumbersome, even with the coarse grid. The inspector does show the coordinates of the selected part or submodel, although I'm not sure if that's what you mean by cursor coordinates. Note that if you do (...)

(...) Yes, this is very annoying as using the arrow keys to move a part/assembly all the way across the model can be slow and painful, especially since Bricksmith doesn't seem to display cursor coordinates.

That is a definite difference. (...) False. Keyboard controls for (...) (17 years ago, 4-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

Can LPUB PLI BEGIN sections be nested? I did not have this problem until I started using lsynthcp version 3.0 (which I probably got directly from Kevin). This version of LSynth automatically inserts LPUB parts list directives to substitute the (...) (17 years ago, 4-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I'm going to have to disagree. As a long time MLCad user and a recent Mac convert (Nov 2007), I feel that while Bricksmith is a very good program, it has some very definite drawbacks that makes it difficult to use. Here's a list from off the (...) (17 years ago, 3-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) I second that. I'm quite novice at virtual building, but Bricksmith has proven very straightforward to use (it's event better with two screens, too), and very convivial.

I have two comments. First of all, it appears that you divided the colors in ldconfig.ldr by 256, instead of dividing by 255. For example, blue in ldconfig.ldr has RGB values of 0, 51, 178. Dividing these by 256 yields the values you have below, (...) (17 years ago, 30-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) It doesn't do that when I type stuff into the Lookup box on the PT. A search for whip only returns one match, when the official library has 4 files with whip in the title or keywords. The match that is found has whip in the keywords. --Travis (17 years ago, 29-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad.ldd)
