    possible rendering problem with LDLite and transparent parts —Larry Pieniazek
   I have encountered a small problem rendering transparent parts with LDLite 2.4 and I am wondering if anyone else has run into it. consider the file flat.dat, attached It has a trans yellow, trans cyan and trans white brick in it as the first step (...)

   (...) How are you viewing the resulting image files? Have you looked at them at full scale? Your problem may be aliasing in the resampling of the images when viewed at reduced scale, and not a problem in ldlite. Check with Jacob for tips on how to (...)

   (...) I am viewing them at full scale. It's related to the size of the work area, I'm pretty sure, rather than the resolution they're viewed at. 4000x4000 is a pretty good sized chunk of memory, I expect. Gyug sent me a note, he's looking into it. (22 years ago, 31-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

   (...) Ok, but I just tested flat.dat with ldlite 2.3 and your command line: ldlite.exe -W2 -MS -S3.0 -C15 -A0.707104,0,0.70710...-0.650895, 0.390731,0.650895 -D1 -U02500,02500 -I-4 -K flat.dat It worked just fine on Win2K with only 192MB. However, I (...) (22 years ago, 31-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.dev)

     Your help is always appreciated Don! I just tried out LDLite v2.4, and it looks OK too, as do the BMP files Larry sent me. I think it is a problem with aliasing. Which reminds me, I was going to add a dithering-expander option, so that trans-colors (...) (22 years ago, 1-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

     (...) I don't know. Sounds to me more like a gimmick than something useful. I wouldn't implement it unless it strikes you as something really fun to try. I think rigging CldliteApp::InitInstance() to be able to render offscreen without a window (...) (22 years ago, 1-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

   (...) Na, don't be quiet... rather, thanks for being obstinate about it! Yes, indeed, you are correct, and it looks like I am all wet. Paint Shop Pro fooled me. My bad. Sorry for any confusion. ++Lar (22 years ago, 1-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
