  Still no zip file for 2008-01?
 
LDraw Library Update 2008-01 is still posted only as a Windows executable. Why is there not yet an universally-accessible zip file of its contents? Allen (16 years ago, 23-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)  
 
  Re: POV Coordinate Question
 
(...) Sorry about the delay here. It turns out that the problem was simply that I'm an idiot. I guess I should have just started with that assumption. At any rate, the copy-paste from LDView works just fine. I was apparently deleting the "right" (...) (16 years ago, 24-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Hopper car model
 
A few months back I designed a (URL) train car: (URL) And recently I built LDraw instructions for it and published them online. What's the best way to share them?

  Re: LPub4 callout arrows vs. pointers
 
(...) Mike, thanks so much for this suggestion. It certainly helps with things like the arrow shafts crossing the page boundary. I have no idea how this might print to PDF, but it looks like I'll have to upgrade to Qt 4.4 to be able to set custom (...) (16 years ago, 22-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
