  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
(...) LEGO name on Factory Pick-a-Brick is "Roof Tile 1 X 1 X 2/3" Philo (16 years ago, 1-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
(...) I agree. So both LDraw and Peeron should change the name. I see that the name has been changed allready on the partstracker of both part 50746 and 54200. What is the official LEGO name for the part or doesn't LEGO name it's parts anyway? Do (...) (16 years ago, 1-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) I think the page image output is replaced by the ability to create PDF files. But I'd like to see this feature too! In other words: 2 options for output: PDF and PNG (whole page) files for every page. (16 years ago, 1-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) Hi Kevin, I really enjoy the new LPub but sorely miss the page image output. Am I just not spotting it or has it really been removed? I've always liked the ability to edit my files in GIMP to add renders, credit etc. Any chance of putting it (...) (16 years ago, 30-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
(...) With the notable exception of the 45 degree slopes, none of the other slope parts have exactly the inclination used in the part description. Note that all have a small vertical section (or step) at the front which causes the angle to deviate (...) (16 years ago, 30-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) It is indeed. I need to place another bufferexchange there. (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
I found one more thing. It appears that at least one of the parts placed in step 7 gets left around inside the model, and is just visible in step 15 as a black rectangle in the center of the bottom. The is visible in both versions of the PDF. (...) (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) You missed a difference on Page 2. In the bottom part, the green arrows are shown in the 4.0.0.1 version, and not in the other version. (...) And round light grey plate 1x1 is not shown either. --Travis (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) I am looking forward to the results, as I am due to deliver building instructions for a project I am working on. I have sent you some personal E-mails about this too. Once again, I thank _you_ for all you effords in creating LPub. (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
Right. So who is to change the name then? Peeron or LDraw? (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
(...) But if you use the part properly* it's 31 degrees. The 45 slope is named for its face slope rather than its total slope. Tim * And by properly I, of course, mean use a heap of offsetting to make them all line up ;) (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) Jaco, Thanks for your detailed analysis complete with MPD to allow recreation. I will take if rom here and fix the LPub bugs. Kevin (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub4.0.0.1 available
 
(...) OK, while testing and playing around with LPub 4 I tried some new techniques I've come up with. I've recreated the "exact" instructions for set 4491. (URL) the same file in LPub 4.0.0.0 and 4.0.0.1 gives different outputs. I've uploaded the (...) (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
(...) Why does the follow-up go to the Robotics group? This is a CAD / LDraw issue, so it should be lugnet.cad.dat.parts. (My mistake in the first place to post it to lugnet.cad ;-) (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Slope Brick 1x1
 
(...) The part file has the dimensions needed to answer this question. The triangles on the sides tell you the width and height of the end. From there you can calculate the length of the hypotenuse. h = sqrt(w*w+h*h) the sin of the angle is (...) (16 years ago, 27-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Slope Brick 1x1
 
Part 50746 is called Slope Brick 33 1 x 1 x 2/3 on Peeron, but this one and and 54200 are called Slope Brick 45 1 x 1 x 2/3 in LDraw and in the unofficial parts. What should it be? 33 of 45 degrees? (16 years ago, 26-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
