lists and BOM come out with all parts being white. I have tried everything I can
think of to get around this. I have successfully created other BOMs and part
lists with the same settings.

Some of the things I have tried to fix this:
* Disabled LGEO
* Set the model to generate in a single color and chosen a dark color
* Changed filetype from LDR to MPD
* Cleared the part cache numerous times
* Changed the color of the parts in the data file (using MlCad)
* Switched from Print to Screen resolution

I am running version 2.2.0.1 of LPub, 3.1g Povray, 3.00 of MLCad   Any help is appreciated.

Geoff,
  The reason that your part images came out white is because you overdrove the
ambient and diffuse controls in the lighting section.

  It is my understanding that ambient+diffuse should be <= 1.  You are driving
things at 1 + 0.6.

  This only affects part images, not building instructions, I guess.

Kevin

Thanks
:-)
