That way when I am done with the custom creations people will know they (...) (19 years ago, 12-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | (...) My LDList program (search for LDRAW parts) has the beginnings of this functionality, you can load a set list and only see the parts in that set, and the number of parts remaining, but it does not keep tab of different colours.

| | | | | | (...) Anders thank you so much for your suggestion. It may not get me all the way but it is a big leap from where I am currently at. :-) Is LDRAW or MLCad open source? If it is I may look into trying to add the functionality to the program if it is (...) (19 years ago, 12-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

It would be easy to work with real life parts but either as I add each part I will need to add the part in MLCad or once I am done with the model I will need to build it backwards in MLCad while I am disassembling it.
