This is mainly concerned with ML-Cad but I know that L-Draw uses the same data and possibly others. Is it possible to change the outline colours of black bricks to white so that they show up better. I have a feeling that there is a variable because (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Actually, for each color, exists a predefined inverse color, for black, you get a less than black color, wich is actually a grey color. If you read the LDRAW FAQ, I believe the colors are described there. NOTE: It would be common sense, that (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad)
