Actually, I downloaded this right after I saw it. But I didn't wanna reply since I don't know much about part-authoring. Anyways... Awesome, the piece renders great in POV-Ray! Finally ridges, mmm... (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Actually, it didn't look so good in L3Lab -- because L3Lab balked at using color 24. A totally different approach would be to construct a subfile, which would contain one segment of ribbing. Then use the subfile to build the ribbed section of (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I only added lines #6 - 36 -- all the color 24's were there before. Whoops, I see what happened now. When I ran it through LDAO's inliner (see below), it changed all the type-5 lines to type 4. I just now changed the pseudo-4's back into real (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Man, I gotta be coming across as the world's biggest jerk. Sorry, Steve, I was wrong; LDAO wasn't changing line numbers on me. LEdit is the one changing the 5's to 4's. Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 17-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) WHAT?!? Do you have evidence for this? The 4-as-5 thing was reported as a bug in LDAO awhile ago, but I could never pin it down. I'd love to know what's actually happening. Steve (24 years ago, 17-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Easy -- I opened the part (in the models dir) in LEdit, moved something that was totally far from the 5-lines, saved it, and loaded the part in a text editor. Sure enough, the 5-lines with color 24 were now 4-lines with color 24. FWIW, all the (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
