    Help generating images of ALL parts in ALL colors —Troy Cefaratti
   Hello everyone, I'm looking for a way to generate images of all the LDraw parts in all the different colors, as making these images by hand in MLCAD is getting a bit tedious. Here is an example of what I would like the final images to look like: (...) (24 years ago, 7-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

   (...) Do you actually want the parts scaled to fit in the viewable area, or would you be happy if the image was clipped to the actual part-image? AFAIK, only MLCAD has a feature to set the scaling to fit the current viewing area. Steve (24 years ago, 13-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

     (...) I think Troy wants the same thing I want - the image clipped to the size of the actual part-image. I know you've said that LDLite does this, but I've now tried it about a billion times (ok, maybe just 15) and it doesn't - not for me. The only (...) (24 years ago, 13-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

      (...) I think he wants all his images the same size so that his brickbay listings will look good. I would rather they were all scaled to the same scale. (...) That would ROCK!

      (...) Perhaps you can use this excel macro to do your job. First copy the excel macro to a module sheet. You put up a worksheet with the path in cell A1 and all the partfiles you want a bitmap of in column 1 starting from A2 downwards. One thing to (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

     (...) FWIW, I *just* grabbed a copy of LDLite 2.0, and I'm getting the same results. Did anyone have this problem (LDLite not cropping to the actual rendered image) before LDLite 2.0? Steve (24 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)

   (...) Some time ago I wrote a program that does that, you enter the color and image size and it will generate gifs or bmps of all parts available, automatically zooming in/out to fit the part. Do you want me to send it to you ? Leonardo (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)
