  Re: Help needed with cond. lines
 
(...) I'm not sure the part authors will be able to help you, but my knowledge of LDView probably will. After looking at it in LDView (without actually trying to read your DAT code), I believe the problem is that you have a T-intersection, and the (...)

In lugnet.cad.dat.parts, Travis Cobbs writes: hi travis, (...) thx for the tip. I remodeled the whole thing and were able to fix it, well almost... looking closely in LDView you can see a rough area where the two 2-4ndis meet the rest of the (...)

  Re: Help needed with cond. lines
 
(...) Looking at how the geometry is layed out, I think you've hit a limitation in LDView's smoothing algorithm. In other words, the lack of smoothness is caused by a problem with LDView, not by a problem with your layout. The basic cause of the (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) this is good news ... at least for me ;-) (...) this will hopefully become good news. many thx for sorting this out and giving me a helping hand. bye, w. (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Help needed with cond. lines  [DAT]
 
(...) While investigating this, I determined two things. First, LDView does have a limitation that causes incorrect rendering of this file, but only when Primitive Substitution is enabled. Based on the way my smoothing code works, it's highly (...) (22 years ago, 31-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Help needed with cond. lines  [DAT]
 
(...) hi travis, thx for your suggestion. the removed lines are clear to me. I added them in a desperate attempt to smooth the primitive - just to see if I could rid of the problem, but I do NOT understand the fix. I added my comments below: 0 (...)

I've created another drawing to help illustrate my descriptions below. Please refer to it while reading below. You can find it here: (...) The edge between the two ndis primitives is empty space. Conditional lines should never be put in empty space. (...) (22 years ago, 3-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) ok (...) upps ... I was totally ignoring the primitive substitution in LDview, shame on me :-( (...) yepp ... I'll try to remodel the whole thing. many thx, w. (22 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
