I've tried downloading the files & subfiles (one subfile is missing-can't remember which now) & can't get them to work; onlt a stud shows up in MLcad jeff (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) I'm guessing the one subfile you are missing is this one: (URL) Because that subfile is the entire part, except for the stud. Download this file to your ldrawpartss directory, and MLCAD should be happier. Steve (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

XFUT lugnet.admin.general (...) This is odd. When viewing my original posting through the web interface, the backslash between 'ldraw' and 'parts' is not displayed. But looking at the raw message, the backslash is actually present. I wonder if this (...) (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) In FTX mode, you have to use a double backslash to be guaranteed that it will show up: ldraw\parts\s. I don't know why the single backslash shows up before the s, but not before the p. --Travis (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) It doesn't matter whether there is additional text within a double backlash or not: In FTX The first one is used to show the second one. E.g. \ldraw\par\ts\s would become ldraw\parts\s too... -Rene (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

Even with all the files saved & new partslist created it shows up as stud only. should i load the subfile first, create (...) (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) OK, now that's just plain weird. So you're saying that every odd backslash will show up in an FTX post, no matter where they are, right? I confess that I fail to see the reasoning behind this behavior. It's worth noting that I couldn't find (...) (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) So you're having trouble with the "right hand" part, 43711.dat? There is no "mirror" of s\43710s01.dat - the reference from 43711.dat to the subfile does the mirroring. So no file is "missing" - it isn't needed. It *sounds* like something is (...) (18 years ago, 2-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Got it! The problem was that I did not save the subfile in the S\ folder - I didn't understand what was going on until I more carefully read the warning upon opening the 's' parts in MLcad: "s\43710s01.dat not found, continue loading?" I (...) (18 years ago, 2-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Hi Travis, sorry, but FTX/Perl isn't _my_ invention ;-) I could imagine it has something to do with Perl (AYMK, LUGNET is based upon Perl).

(...) Hmm, that *is* weird. This isn't actually a PML thing, though, but an FTX thing. The FTX-to-HTML converter runs as a seperate self-contained module; all PML parsing occurs prior to the FTX-to-HTML conversion. The backslash in FTX was intended (...)
