    Sticker background color (request to Standards Committee) —Philippe Hurbain
   Please find here (URL) a suggestion to allow use of main color (16) for background of stickers... Philo (13 years ago, 31-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Sticker background color (request to Standards Committee) —Michael Heidemann
     (...) Our current spec ((URL) says: "The pattern is on the top face; the other (five) sides of the box correspond to main background color of the sticker pattern (i.e. the predominant color of the pattern at its edges). If there isn't a predominant (...) (13 years ago, 31-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Sticker background color (request to Standards Committee) —Roland Melkert
   (...) I agree usage of color 16 for the box should be left to the part author. But the thing I'm thinking of is in daily use this will cause the sticker to be used in a non 'real' way. I mean you would like to have the option but by default it (...) (13 years ago, 31-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)

        Re: Sticker background color (request to Standards Committee) —Tore Eriksson
   (...) Even I have given that issue up now. :) I'd say we make a utility program that converts long names and references to them to 8.3 names, for the few special occations that will be necessary.

        Re: Sticker background color (request to Standards Committee) —Michael Heidemann
   (...) Snip Do you have an idea how that should work? The only thing I can imagine is that the whole library has to be made for that case as there are maybe references that has more than 8.3 filenames. And the result could not be shown on other (...)
