Hi Scott, Works fine here (but my LDraw installation is rather standard). Only minor gripe: it doesn't preserve or restore the order of custmized color toolbar (mine is modified to include main and edge colors). Suggestion: include readme and (...) (15 years ago, 13-Oct-09, to lugnet.cad)

Hi Santeri, (...) Size doesn't look that bad !? (...) I don't see why you needed to re-do the surface? Why not use the top shape of the part and flatten it? Or maybe there is something I missed? (...) Why shouldn't it work? Though Quad2Dat has a lot (...) (15 years ago, 13-Oct-09, to lugnet.cad)
