 | | Another request to LDlite programmers... —Karim Nassar
|
| | | Hi all, Sorry to continually harp on this, but if Paul, or anyone else who is currently "into" the LDlite code would look into a feature implementation, I would be forever greatful. The current version of LDlite has a feature "rotate model after (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | You could use MLCad for this feature. The program supports so called RotationSteps which rotate the model and stop drawing (or generate a picture). To make a rotating model, you have to append several rotation steps at the end of the dat file and (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | (...) Well, I can also do this using LDAO & LDlite, and just as manually. The reason I'm asking someone to modify the LDLite code is because I want an automated way to do this, and it seems that LDLite is 75% there already. Automated, because I've (...)

| | | | In lugnet.cad, Karim wrote some words, asking for LDLite to combine -MS and -T options. This isn't a fix to LDLite, but I put together a utility to run a model through LDLite 36 times, rotating the view around Y by 10 degrees each time. The bitmap (...)

This means it requires OpenGl DLLs for windows, but I think you can get them at the LdGLite web site. And to be honest, LdGlite is (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)
