  Re: Colinear Vertices
 
(...) triangle has had its surface normal pulled down. So the triangle isn't co-planar with the quad as far as the lighting is concerned. With curve smoothing, all polygons who share a smoothed vertex use a common surface normal for that vertex. But (...) (16 years ago, 13-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LD4DStudio suggestions?
 
Hello all, I was wondering if people have some minor suggestions / bug reports for my current LD4DStudio version. Work on the 1.1 version is taking longer than expected so I was planning to release a bugfix only version this month. Any additional (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Conditional Ring primitive?
 
(...) My comment about needing twice the geometry for the edge was based on a misunderstanding of what you wrote. Based on what I now assume you meant, two wouldn't be required for each joint. However, your solution would only work if the cones on (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Conditional Ring primitive?
 
(...) It sounds like it would work, but I'm not sure if people would go for it. Of course, if the POTM competitions are anything to go by, you're making a majority of the complicated parts right now, so if you go with it, that's probably all we need (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Conditional Ring primitive?
 
(...) Mmhhh... maybe by setting 2 conditional rings on the junction. Each condring would be set between a cylinder and a cone. Scaling the ring would adapt to various cone slopes. Of course 2 rings would be needed, one for converging cones, one for (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Conditional Ring primitive?
 
(...) That's a primitive I have been longing for... but I realized it is impossible to build: where would you put the control lines? The top control points would need to be scaled differently from bottom ones to match various cylinders/cones (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Conditional Ring primitive?
 
(...) I just noticed something else while investigating a fix for the above problem. The above model could really use a circular conditional edge primitive. I would vote for x-ycedge.dat as the filename (ie 1-4cedge.dat, 4-4cedge.dat, (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Colinear Vertices
 
(...) I played with the settings, and I had to set the precision all the way down to 0.133 in order to get it to fully smooth. (0.125 failed to smooth properly.) (...) .005. I think I'll set the precision to .01, to hopefully give it some leeway. I (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LETGUI new version 0.1.0.18
 
(...) Thanks! For the record: - Ytruder 1.2 is no longer limited to Y direction and can extrude along x, y or z directions - Intersector 1.3 has a new scaling option that improves result for small parts. Philo (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Colinear Vertices
 
(...) It makes sense! (...) An example, this button: (URL) I rounded condlines to 2 decimal places since I couldn't get smoothing anyway. I did more experiments, with full precision in condline it works: (URL) but after rounding to 3 dp there is no (...) (16 years ago, 12-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
