OK, I checked the part a bit more. If you look at line 568 in the
file it's a quad, but it should be a triangle. The 4th point is the
same as the 2nd point. I'm not sure why the l3 parser in ldglite
doesn't convert it to a triangle during parsing. I'll have to look
into that further. The ldlite parser does seem to fix it.
Meanwhile these two quads should probably be converted into triangles
on the part. I don't think you can BFC CERTIFY a V shaped quad with
no face. ;)
Otherwise, you're right, the part looks great!

| (...) It is by design. I chose to ignore the line, the author should fix the problem. (He gets a warning (hm, should have been an error)) Likewise if a triangle has identical vertices I don't "fix" it to a line or a point. /Lars (23 years ago, 24-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
