(...) Yes, there are parallel lights that work just like orthographic cameras. Check the docs. This way you will get uniform lighting on every object in the scene. Mike (13 years ago, 24-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| | Re: How would you do it?
|

(...) I am using an orthographic camera because I don't want perspective at all. I didn't try parallel lights. (there are such? or do you mean area?) That may be what I need to correct the shading differences. One thing I'm still chasing is that I (...) (13 years ago, 22-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) FastRad is a good choice for this scene. I would also use a parallel camera and lights. Mike (13 years ago, 22-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Works fine here now! thanks!!! Another possible improvement (I don't know if it is possible at all): character set for reviews is fairly restricted, and it's impossible to use UTF8 chars in comments (or even fairly common characters like (...) (13 years ago, 18-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) This problem should now be fixed. The detail pages, parts list and activity summary now all force the browser to render using utf-8 encoding. Chris (13 years ago, 18-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | Re: Ideas for partbin group sorting

Hi Roland, (...) There is a reason. I tend to sort bricks by function (give or take) and slope bricks are rarely interchangeable with regular bricks. With multiple levels I'd probably favour Slopes -45 deg --1x --2x --other -33 deg --1x --2x --other (...) (13 years ago, 17-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Current groups mostly work with filters, you can 'include' or 'exclude' stuff based upon category, keywords, description and name. But I'm open for other criteria, like stud count is very interesting :) (...) Thanks (13 years ago, 16-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | Re: Ideas for partbin group sorting

(...) Not exactly sorting and subclassing, but what about an edit box where you could enter filtering critera, like "1 x 2" or "diver" etc. By coincidence, this is exactly what my LDList program does :-) (URL) It allows search by number, name, (...) (13 years ago, 16-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) <snip> (...) Yes that's what I was thinking too, but eventually I decided to make it 100% customizable, all groups are defined by ini files users themself can extend or change. All those groups are based on filtering rules or static part (...) (13 years ago, 16-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Parts aren't limited to a single group, you can have the same parts in multiple groups you can even use the same group in multiple places, e.g: bricks - 1 x n - 2 x n - technic bricks - all technic - gears - technic bricks As you could imagine (...)

(...) Thanks this seems like a good starting point, I there a (practical) reason you didn't put slope bricks under bricks e.g.: bricks - plain - etc - slope - - 45 deg - - 33 deg The bin supports unlimited levels and you can use the same group in (...) (13 years ago, 16-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Hi, I can suggest that using subcategories to filter out parts could be the right way, even if you can first display all parts of a specified category, and let the user refine the search by filtering on subcategories. You may also consider (...) (13 years ago, 16-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | Re: Ideas for partbin group sorting
|
|
(...) I would like to see something that lets parts be in many groups instead of a strict hierarchy... so that, for example, a part could be in "circular", "rounded top" and "stud on top" all at the same time. (13 years ago, 16-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hello all, I've been working on my LDraw editor during my vacation, and I'm wondering on how to populate the partbin by default. The general mechanics are done and I only need to 'sort' the library so it's handy to use during editing. I got the (...) (13 years ago, 15-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)
