Yeah, that’s a workable strategy. It’s what I did here:

http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=14903 ; I assume LPub makes it easier for the user by coming up with the scaled colors automatically.

Wow. That looks nice. Can I do this too?

Sure, you will be able to. I used a modified version of PreL3P, my little tool for replacing color codes. I’ll post version 1.3 which will include this ability (loading different configurations partway through a model) soon, once I take care of any other bugs that come up. I’ll post more details on the technique at that time, too.

Until then, here’s another little example.

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4

Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 Step 8

Step 9 Step 10 Step 11 Complete

The current step is drawn with these colors (the defaults) and previous steps are drawn with these colors.

--snip-- (...) That's an excellent trick. I may have to bookmark this thread and download the program when I have CAD running again. Tim (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
