Well, running a bit back and forth in the file will give you a sense of the part
just as well, and the you avoid starting out with a maze of lines: The biggest
problem is that without the framing lines, the polygons is extremely difficult
to figure out, since you’re left with the subtle differences in shading to
figure out how they’re extended in space (and if they’re in front or behind
earlier sections. A maze of lines won’t help on that, and that’s why I like the
polygons and corresponding lines to be grouped intimately together (based on the
polygon). But I guess that’s a question of style, if you consider the polygons
to be extended inside a frame of lines or that the lines just edges different
sections of the “peal” (surface).
About the team suggestion, I didn’t really consider working parallel (because
everybody have to check everything anyway), but more serial, where one reviewer
takes over when the other stops, but of course it would make reviewing multipart
files a lot faster too, because those files are a lot harder to figure out (and
that the memory therefore degrades that much faster). It would probably also
help on the problem that subfiles usually lags behind the topfiles because
they’re a lot more boring and confusing check.
The reason why I asked for so many volunteers wasn’t because I’m too lazy to
participate, but it’s to have enough participants to avoid that you suddenly
lacks a vote or two because somebody don’t have the time right now or have to
sacrifice their certificationvote to fix something. So come out of lurkmode!
And thanks for the comment Steve. I see you’ve remembered the wedge part again
;-)

| Excellent post, Niels! :) (...) To expand on this- it's very good to keep edges grouped with polygons, but it's also nice (at least at the beginning of the file), to put the edges first. Laying out the frame of the part makes it easier to see what (...) (20 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
