(...) You're welcome. For many people, this will be the premier feature of LDView 4.1. I intended to include it in LDView 4.0, but decided it was better to get the release out instead of delaying it just for that. It was not an easy feature to (...) (15 years ago, 8-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

Just went through the parts and we do have a good amount of new parts added with this update. Fixed and added many colors. For now I’m sticking to the parts that are easy to get done. Going for the bulk first, I will then work on the complex parts (...) (15 years ago, 7-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)

(...) Kevin, I'm using LPub 4.0.0.4 and I seem to be having this problem that was presumably fixed in 4.0.0.3. Is there something I need to do to get the background color to fill the pdf page? Right now I have my page setup to 11.0 by 8.5 (...) (15 years ago, 7-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

| | Mixed Orientation of NXT Sensors in LPub

Okay, I'm baffled by this. I'm adding both an NXT touch sensor and a HiTechnic acceleration sensor in one step and for some reason they are oriented differently in the parts list generated by LPub. The touch sensor is pointing down to the left and (...) (15 years ago, 3-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Thank you for all the comments on this (including those that veered off-topic). I like the "Cross Block" designation, especially as this is a common theme in the LEGO descriptions. It has the added benefit that it is shorter than "Joiner (...) (15 years ago, 3-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)
