 | | New parts and update?
|
|
Hi all, It has been a long time since I posted, but here is one again. Lately I am getting some questions about new parts and a new update from the Dutch cad community. Questions are: why does it take so long for a part to be official and when will (...) (18 years ago, 26-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Hello Allan, (...) Would you have a screenshot? (...) It does look OK here ((URL) you sure that you have all official LDraw parts updates in your LDraw folder? Philo (18 years ago, 23-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.leocad)

(...) L3P cannot substitute a primitive it doesn't know, but the above mentioned 4-4cyl12.dat will be treated like any ordinary DAT file, and then the 4-4cyli.dat and the 4-4disc.dat will get substituted (the edges are not used in L3P). I'm not sure (...) (18 years ago, 23-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

I'm hoping someone can help. I'm trying to get this part: (URL) in LeoCAD. I downloaded the main dat file, and the subfile to go with it. I have put them in ..\ldraw\parts and ..\ldraw\parts\s respectively. But LeoCAD seems to want to display the (...) (18 years ago, 22-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

I just remember that the mail was quite anonymous, that I've answered the post to say thank. Again thank you, this LDraw community is (...) (18 years ago, 19-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

[Lotsa snipping] (...) I'm fine with that. Taking up the issues Chris raised (but out of order): (...) I think we need to allow for partial rods. (...)

(...) We could use "rod" as a short base name for these. Do we need to allow for non-360 degree versions? I didn't see any requirements for partial cylinders in the thread so far. Was that implicit in the request? 1) If not, one would be to use a (...) (18 years ago, 17-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) Since we've already got primitives like '5-24cyli.dat', I think it would be a good idea to restrict the suffix of the file name to 4 characters. I wouldn't want to start right out making specialized cylinders-with-edges for every single (...) (18 years ago, 16-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) I thought of that, but liked the idea of more descriptive names, like the rect*.dat series. The '1' would in this case stand for number of discs, and '2' for number of edges. But I could definifly live with cyla, cylb etc too. (...) Same here. (...) (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) How about N-4cyla.dat, N-4cylb.dat, etc? Although I have to admit -- I'm not a huge fan of saving a few lines of code here and there. When two such primitives are adjacent, I always have to double-check which one includes the edge(s). (...) (...) (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

hi folks, I just uploaded this part to the PT: (2 URLs) considering the sheer number of subparts it'll take probably ages to put it through the reviews but inlining the letters would have blown the file to some 250 KB. 8-) w. (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) There is no rule against primitive files calling to other \P files. I didn't have to look very long to find one. And if we inlined them, I suspect the primitive substitution in L3P will not work until L3P is updated to support the new ones. (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
