    Re: New Part, 99% done: 6203.dat - Container ??? —Tore Eriksson
   (...) www.peeron.com calls it Case Oval. I don't know, it seems like it's not only used in Belville sets. ( (URL) ) (...) <snip> I have noticed that kind of problems too. It must be due to the current primitives, and not flaws in my parts authoring. (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: New Part, 99% done: 6203.dat - Container ??? —Don Heyse
     (...) I agree. I think the problem is that the current half cylinder primitives expect to be mated with other cylinder primitives to create a whole cylinder. Connect edge A with optional line to edge B without optional line. But connect edge A to (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

     (...) It took me a minute to grok what you were saying. The 'test line' is inaccurate for anything except joining one half-cylinder to another. (...) We could push the cylinder polygons into one file, the final edge-line into another file, and (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

     (...) Do you have a naming convention in mind for the new un-deliminated partial cylinder files and the joiner files? How about X-Ycylu.dat for un-deliminated partial cylinders, X-Ycyla.dat for the leading optional line, and X-Ycylb.dat for a (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

     (...) I thought about it for like 2.5 seconds. Does that count? I figured it would be some X-YcylZ.dat type of thing. :) (...) X-Ycylu.dat works for me. (...) We should only need a single file for the optional line,[2] the leading and trailing edges (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

   (...) I'm not sure where to go with this one. Generally, parts like this go into Minifig Accessory. But this part isn't exactly minifig scale. Hmm. (...) I don't think so. Typical primitive files only have an optional line at one end. Check out this (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

   (...) Yes, please do. I think the 1-4 are more general than 2-4, but it's up to you. /Tore (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

   (...) OK, I submitted the 1-4 ring files to the Parts Tracker. They're at: (URL) about my earlier lack of understanding of the problem with the current x-4cyli files. My bad. :/ Steve (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

   (...) Big thanks! ( Hmm, Swenglish? ) (...) Nah. It's likely my lack of capability to express myself explicit in English. :o) /Tore (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)
