I've updated the macros again. Lots of changes and a few bug fixes. All road objects are now solid and can be used within CSG operations. Added optional road embankments. The angle of the embankment is determined by the embankment slope and sky (...) (16 years ago, 21-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Hi folks, as an early X-Mas present the LEGO Universe Team has shared another batch of part shapes with the community, with the purpose to make them fit for the LDraw Parts Tracker. This time the focus is on Minifig Headgear but there are also some (...) (16 years ago, 20-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.announce)

(...) LOL. And if you had not asked, someone (me :-) would have asked after the next release to re-integrate the old style pointers. (16 years ago, 20-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) These are great ideas and on the list of todos, but they will have to wait for some future release. I've always assumed that LPub would support the double page concept so that you could have arrows cross pages, but thats going to take a lot of (...) (16 years ago, 20-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

Great news Kevin! I too would like to see the BOM back. And it would indeed be so nice to be able to add corners to the callout arrows. Perhaps even a line to the next page? On the other hand, I like the pointers as they are now too. If it is (...) (16 years ago, 19-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

| | Re: Black faces in LPub generated PDF when printing

(...) I think that Tim means to say is to open the generated PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader and print to PDF. I have a PDF printer installed. It seems a plausible solution since PDF is the native file format of Acrobat and if any program should be able (...) (16 years ago, 19-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yes, of course, but not in this next release. Sorry. I'm guessing that hearing this is a double edge sword for you, because in the past, you've taken most every LPub source code update (hint: www.sourceforge.net) and test driven it for me. I (...) (16 years ago, 19-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I don't think there's any direct printing involved but printing the PDF to another PDF as an interim stage may fix (or at least expose) any non-supported PDF in the LPUB output. Tim (16 years ago, 18-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

I've been working a lot on 4.0.0.2. One of the changes I've made is to replace the callout pointers (the triangles), with arrows. The arrow color is the same as the callout border. You will have choices on arrowhead dimensions and shaft thickness. (...) (16 years ago, 18-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
