I have tried with several versions of LDview and for some reason some parts are
not correctly coloured:
The Hinge car roof (4213) and PLate 2x2 with wheel holders (4600) in the PLI are
only partly coloured (50% diagonally).
Part of the steering wheel (3829) in the model is not coloured
Part of the Hinge car roof holder 1x4x2 (4214) is not coloured either in the PLI
or in the model.
But if I view the model directly in LDView I find none of these problems.
Also If I change the resolution fromt eh default 150dpi to 75 dpi the colouring
problem disappears (but the images are too fuzzy).
Using LDView allows me more control over the final quality of the renders (line
colours, shading, etc) than LDGlite so I would prefer using LDView...
Does anybody know why this happens and if there is a way to solve this?
BTW when I first tried using LDView the first 2 steps of the CAR.mpd file were
not rendered eiter as model or as PLI. After some rerenders the parts and model
appeared, but I am still in the dark as to why this happened.
There also appears to be a problem with the page size settings when using
centimetres. Exporting a file to PDF with the standard settings when the default
unit is cm results in pages of an incredible small size tat can ponly hold the
upper left corner of the PLI.

| (...) uses the opengl hardware on the video card to do the offscreen rendering. Maybe the card is running out of memory at the higher dpi? What does LDView report about your opengl driver? Maybe that'll provide a clue. (15 years ago, 11-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad)

| (...) The partly colored parts indicate LDView is having troubles, not LPub. (...) LPub's communication of what to render is done through LDraw files in the <yourmodeldirectory>/LPub/tmp directory. Those files should simply be the parts (up to a (...) (15 years ago, 11-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad)
