I have updated several of my LDraw tool for parts authors: (URL) PlanarCheck>: corrected a bug that caused agressive rounding. (URL) Rectifier>: new -t option allowing to choose the maximum angle formed by two triangles being merged into a quad. (...) (15 years ago, 25-May-10, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad, FTX)

(2 URLs) SymSplitter> is the tool of choice when you want to exploit symmetries in a LDraw file to reduce its size. You may use it to separate left/right/middle parts, cut parts by planes, and adjust vertices coordinates to make sure they lie (...) (15 years ago, 25-May-10, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

--snip-- (...) Strange. I think they're perfectly on topic. You are discussing CAD issues of models in the DAT format. I can't think of a better place for them. The whole point of having a discussion tree format is that things can be put in the (...) (15 years ago, 24-May-10, to lugnet.cad)

As a response to my post "Understanding the Datsville Coordinates", I today recieved an e-mail from Austria (I think), requesting me to "Please Stopp emails to lugnet.cad.dat.model...lugnet.com !!!!!!!" Now, I'm not sure how to interpret that. (...) (15 years ago, 24-May-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Thanks for the response. I know you're right; it's normal behaviour for coordinate systems. But I guess I'm not normal. :) For some reason, I have no problems with the y axis, despite it goes the wrong way. Probably because you always know (...)

(...) Thats normal behavior in each coordinate system. My problem is more the y axis in LDraw that it decreases if it is higher! But thanks for that information. I am sure it will help in some cases. cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 24-May-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

After almost 11 years of dealing with Datsville, I still find the coordinate system confusing. This picture may help to understand a little. (URL) yellow line is the z axis at x=0. The white represents the x axis at z=0. The further upper left, the (...) (15 years ago, 23-May-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

(...) That would be a great enhencement for MLCad and it should be possible. But I do not know how many hours Michael L. has to spend for that.

Hi, This is something that's been bugging me for a while, but since MLCAD is free software and very useful even without this feature, I haven't made much of a fuss about it. However, I thought I'd throw it out here so others can comment on it and so (...) (15 years ago, 22-May-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
