(...) I think it would be easier for you to just try it out for yourself, but here's a file: (URL) following is the gzipped version of the file: (URL) gzipped one didn't work for me in Firefox (3.5), but it worked fine in IE with the Adobe SVG (...) (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

  Looking for
 
I've got a set of instructions I need to finish up and the model includes 30663 Car Steering Wheel Large. I'm using the unofficial file at (URL) ; that page lists the only required subfile as p/t04i1765.dat Torus Inside 1 x 0.1765 x 0.25 , but the (...) (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Website slow
 
(...) The visitors are also spiders, bots and the rest of internet fauna. LDraw.org is hosted on a Peeron.com server. Last time we had been slow it was lack of memory: (URL) drop Dan a mail an see what can be done. w. LDraw Administration Team. (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: New article on LDraw.org
 
(...) And in the other direction if I need to get back Meshlab data in LDraw world? (I have used stl2dat for that, but there might be better solutions?) Philo (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Website slow
 
Whis is LDraw.org so slow? Is someone hosting it from their home/work PC? Are there really that many visitors? -Mike (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: New article on LDraw.org
 
(...) You can export as 3DS using LDView and then load the 3DS file in MeshLab. -Mike (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Could you upload an example file? -Mike (15 years ago, 26-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) I could update the mklist sources to work handle filenames with 25 chars I was going to add a quietmode commandline option this weekend anyhow. Should I allow 25 chars as the default, and perhaps include an optional command line arg to (...) (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) If I understand that, this would mean that we could use a new mklist tool and we can start using that long filenames. The possibility to use MLCad for generating PARTS.LST will be away, but this only a little cut. cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) Were any other issues anticipated? (...) I did a short test of MLCAD with a modified PARTS.LST. The results were mixed - MLCAD seems OK using an altered-format PARTS.LST file, but re-generating PARTS.LST from MLCAD results in an invalid file. (...)

  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) When the LSC updated the spec to allow 21.3 filenames, I don't think any of us were aware that this would create a problem for PARTS.LST. However, looking at the file, there's a chance that MLCAD will work perfectly well with longer filenames (...) (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) Parts Tracker-wise (if I remember right, and if nothing's been changed), there's only one script which needs to be modified to accept 21.3 files instead of 8.3 files. Organizationally, I dunno if there is actually a hold-up. The specifications (...) (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) This is the status quo now for many months. What action has been taken to solve that problem? To me it seems only to be a little adjustment to some lines of code (but maybe I am wrong). So my question would be: where is the bottleneck that (...) (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) Well... imho this should not be an issue at all - if the parts tracker was updated! Philo (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) These truncated filenames never went past the LSC, and as such should probably be held. I personally feel that they are inappropriate, but whether or not I think they are appropriate, I believe that it's the LSC's job to determine that. (...)

  Re: Tools that output SVG?
 
(...) LDView has experimental SVG/PS/EPS snapshot support, but you have to set a registry key for it to be enabled. Create the following DWORD registry key and set it to 1: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\So...are\Travis Cobbs\LDView\GL2PSAllowed Once you have (...) (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
Hi Steve, (...) One reason: the Parts Tracker still doesn't like >8 names :( Philo (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) I ditto Phillippe's primary suggestion: use multiple files. It's good for multiple reasons. However, the current standards allow at least 25 characters in the filename, so is there a reason to worry about a 9 character primitive name? Steve (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: New article on LDraw.org
 
(...) Very interesting! How do you convert LDraw data to/from Meshlab? I used Meshlab to rebuild data from my NXT 3D scanner ((URL) and it's an awesome tool... though I am very far from mastering it! Philo (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 11-16 primitives?
 
(...) I would suggest avoiding the problem completely by using a 2-4edge + 3-16edge... In other instances the name was shortened: 3-16cone19 --> 3-16co19 11-48ring19 --> 11-48r19 Philo (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  New article on LDraw.org
 
I created the following article on LDraw.org. (URL) like to ask here if there is any info I missed. -Mike (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Tools that output SVG?
 
Are there any LDraw tools that will output in SVG format? -Mike (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  11-16 primitives?
 
What would be the suggested name for an 11-16 primitive for a cylinder or edge line since 11-16 contains 5 letters and tacking on edge or cyli at the end would give a 9 letter name? (15 years ago, 22-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  LPub 4.0.0.4 and LSynth
 
I'm beginning to get to grips with the new LPub but I have a problem with LSynth. How do I get flex tubes in my parts list? If I open the pre-LSynth mpd file in LPub I get the LS00.dat LSynth parts in the list. If I open the post-LSynth mpd then I (...) (15 years ago, 24-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LPub 4.0.0.4: Submodels in parts list?
 
(...) Hi Philo, Sorry for the tardiness of the reply. I've been busy with other hobbies. I assume all of the above are LPub bugs. It will probably be a few weeks before I can look at them Thanks, Kevin (15 years ago, 21-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

Two other issues (maybe related): - When you move a callout with the mouse, its position is not remembered (no metacommand created). You have to first change callout position using the contextual menu (a metacommand line is created) then move (...) (15 years ago, 21-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LDraw.org 2009-02 Parts Update Now Available
 
(...) Thanks for clarifying, Willy. I had not understood from previous messages that some of Lego's colors didn't physically exist. Out of curiosity, does anyone know why Lego is defining colors they haven't actually produced? Allen (15 years ago, 19-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  LPub 4.0.0.4: Submodels in parts list?
 
Hi Kevin, I don't seem to be able to show submodels in parts list (LPub 4.0.0.4), despite I have checked the appropriate box in content tab of parts list setup. Any hint ? Philo (15 years ago, 19-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
