    Callout a single part —Jaco van der Molen
   Would it be possible to create a callout for a single part instead of a submodel? This would be useful for decorated parts that are positioned in the model so that you cannot see the pattern. Or parts that are partially "hidden" or that you want to (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

   (...) And this works. I use it often. (...) Why are step 8 and 11 unachievable in the current model of LPub using sub-models for callouts? Why do you want a different way to to what you can already do? (...) Can you please explain, in hypothetical (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Callout a single part —Jaco van der Molen
   (...) I agree that it does, but I think it is a bit too circuitous. I suppose this is too difficult to implement in LPub For now then making a submodel for each callout with only one part and no step in it, doing it like this makes me (once again) (...)

        Re: Callout a single part —Jaco van der Molen
     (...) Sorry, I meant: By placing LPUB SUBMODEL_STEP BEGIN IGN prior to the 0 STEP command in a submodel, the following steps will be ignored until the next LPUB SUBMODEL_STEP END meta command and not show in the callout. (19 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Callout a single part —Kevin L. Clague
   (...) It just creates an alternate solution for something that I have already provided. (...) I'm wondering if this will work in your higher level model: 0 BUFFEXCHG A STORE 0 LPUB CALLOUT BEGIN 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 sub8callout.ldr 0 LPUB (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

        Re: Callout a single part —Jaco van der Molen
   (...) Right. This indeed works. However it does not seem to work in an MPD file. Render this: 0 New Model 0 Name: single-callout.ldr 0 Author: MLCad 0 Unofficial Model 0 BUFEXCHG A STORE 0 LPUB CALLOUT BEGIN 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Callout a single part —Kevin L. Clague
   (...) Jacko, I originally developed mine in MPD file, but presented it as non-mpd file. The file you presented above is not in valid MPD file format. The first line needs to be: 0 FILE single-callout.ldr The file with this minor correction works (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
