Hi All. I am getting more familiar with MLCAD and the creation of LDRAW
models every day, but one thing I cannot figure out yet is how to set up the
alignment of sub-parts. Now I am sure I am using the wrong name for this,
so let me explain. If I create a small car, or a bridge truss, etc that I
want to use over and over, I save the DAT file and then load it as a custom
piece in the final drawing. However, when I bring the model into the new
drawing, invariable it is not centered or it is oriented the wrong way. I
can easily enough rotate or move it, but I'd like to set it up so that all
of my sub-parts files have a uniform orientation and a ceter at the 0,0,0
point. What is the best way to accomplish this?
Thanks
