  Re: Technic Gear 42 Tooth (744.dat) issue?
 
(...) Works fine for me. But the 42z gear is part 644 and 744 is a "moved to" file on my system William (15 years ago, 7-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Technic Gear 42 Tooth (744.dat) issue?
 
Anyone else have trouble displaying Technic Gear 42 Tooth (744.dat) in MLCad? Be careful, on my system, it causes an immediate hard crash of MLCad, losing any changes in your dat file! I'm pretty sure that it's the first time that I've ever seen (...) (15 years ago, 7-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) Two things. First of all, is Maersk Blue hard-coded into any part files? I would expect parts that show up in Maersk Blue to have color 16 encoded in the file, and the user to select Maersk Blue as the parts' color when building a model. Since (...)

  LPub 4.0.0.0.4 BOM issue with BUFEXCHG  [DAT]
 
See below I would expect the BOM to contain 6 different coloured 2x3 plates, but the last two (added after the BOM END) are ignored - in fact with a very big file everything after the BOM END is ignored (almost as if the BOM END isn't seen) Also, I (...) (15 years ago, 7-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) I don't know if I got that right. Isn't Maersk Blue one of those part colors most wrongfully and misleadingly labeled as a "dithered" color? (...) I suggest the 0x2RRGGBB form is recommended for less "basic"/established pattern and sticker (...) (15 years ago, 7-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

  Re: Dungeon Delver: That Frog...
 
(...) Wow. I'm glad I posted my little picture, if for no other reason than to bring your amazing work to light again. I only get the chance to pop into Lugnet once in a while now, and had never seen this scnner of yours. It would be pretty amazing (...) (15 years ago, 6-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) I'm not much of a part author, so my opinion probably counts for even less than usual here, but I actually find myself agreeing with Willy on a issue involving colors. That never happens! ;) But heck, who can argue against freedom and (...) (15 years ago, 6-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) It would be very interesting which applications can not work with the (RGB colors (of the form 0x2RRGGBB)). Are they useful/necessary/developed? If someone has those application to test and make a summary of that would be great. cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 6-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) For what it counts, I'd go for: * Explicitly disallow "dither" colors in all official parts, but allow RGB colors (of the form 0x2RRGGBB) in their place in patterned/sticker parts. This solution would give me the most freedom. I could just (...) (15 years ago, 6-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: LPub 4.0.0.4 CLEAR issue
 
(...) Hi William, Welcome to LPub 4.0! Its a bit different, eh? Your expectations for CLEAR are very reasonable. <snip> Thanks for the wonderfully simple example. I made a one line fix for this. After I get the "submodel in PLI" problem fixed, you (...) (15 years ago, 6-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad)

  LDraw.org Parts numbering scheme for parts with unknown numbers.
 
The LSC has just ratified the LDraw.org Parts numbering scheme for parts with unknown numbers. It should allow to add parts to the library where the part number is not known.

  Re: LPub 4.0.0.4: Callout placement
 
(...) Just started using LPub 4 (last used LPub 2!) and came across this. What seems to happen is that the callout placement meta-command *is* created, just after the callout end meta-command. So after moving the callout with the mouse you need to (...) (15 years ago, 5-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad)
