(...) Go to take a look at your ldraw/p/ directory. ;) More seriously, I've reposted the slightly-dated Primitives Reference page at (URL). That page gives you an outline of most of the 'types' of primitive files. Steve (22 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) The rings aren't actually for POV- they're for LDraw. They are simply sections of 16-sided "curves" (and yes- they are in the "p" directory). The rotation/scaling matrix turns them and scales them up to fit onto the panel's surface. You can do (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
