Trying to add pnuematics to one of my virtual creations has led me to come up
with a few suggestions to improve the current situation.
Firstly we need a correctly sized tube. The flex tube is the same diameter as
the pnumatic nozzle so that's no good, it should fit over the nozzle.
The new style of Pnuematic cylinder hasn't been created yet and I noticed when
you push the tube over the nozzle it creates a bulge. It would be great if the
pnumatic tube start piece was modelled to look like the short bulged section. A
non-bulged version for joining intermediate sections would also be needed.
I could also do with a straight tube generator like the flexible one, although
I'd be happy to edit the LDR but their is a bug in Mlcad where when you move the
part on screen it gets catapulted across the screen.

| (...) I've encountered this bug, as well. It seems to happen mainly on parts that have been scaled. The workaround is to select multiple objects to move, making sure that at least one part isn't scaled. For this reason, I often keep an extra (...) (21 years ago, 31-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)
