Why is it that MLCad isn't appropriate for large models? Does it take a long
time, or will MLCad actually crash?
And what is the size limitation? I'm working on a fairly large model - well,
it has a large number of parts, though its overall size isn't too big. Is
there a magic file size that prompts disaster? Or a certain pieces count?
Everything's looking good so far, though it would be nice to brac myself if I
should be expecting a fiasco ...
thanks,
