Kevin,

Another discovery: it appears that LPub does not want to call LSynth when the
model contains no submodels, that is, when it is an .ldr file instead of a .mpd
file.  I eliminated the need for subparts and LSynth stopped running.  When I
put a dummy subpart to make it a .mpd again, LSynth started running again.

Is LPub running an embedded LSynth or is it finding the executable on my
computer?

No.  LPub and MLCad uses the lsynth already on your computer.

I highly recommend you work with LSynth in MLCad and get things like you like,
and not use lsynth within LPub.


On an unrelated note, but while I have your ear, I should mention that LPub does
not always close the progress window when generating CSIs, PLIs, and BOM.  I
have not yet figured out what circumstances trigger that behavior.

I've wrestled with this nasty problem a fair amount.  I'll keep digging.


Also, tonight, when generating layouts, LPub fails to generate the final
completed layout image.  The status box says "Laying out page 46" but there is
no image 46.  I also notice that there is no image 46 in the images folder.
Strange.

Thanks again.
