  Re: Official LEGO Color Chart
 
(...) I don't have a tool or adequate knowledge for this, but I'm guessing someone else here does. Recently, TLC has been (URL) PDFs> to Brickshelf that include color information.

  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) Don, We're almost there. I'm on the road most of this week, so I'm getting in a little work on the bundle as conditions permit. I have a crudely hacked double-clickable mklist.app that I'll send to Chris to test out when I get back home (...) (21 years ago, 10-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

  Re: Announcing LDraw.org Relaunch
 
(...) This is on the todo list but I can't tell you when we'll have it up a running again. -Orion (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Announcing LDraw.org Relaunch
 
(...) Thank goodness. I've been waiting most of this year for Ldraw.org to show some new content. Will the "Model of the Month" and "Scene of the Month" contests reappear? A quick glance at the site didn't turn up any mention of this. They got me to (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) I didn't think so, but I wanted to be sure because... (...) This'll take a while because I have to write (or find) some code to do it. The envinronment.plist contents are automagically tranformed into environment variables by the nice folks at (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Official LEGO Color Chart
 
(...) Not that I recall or can see from the picture. He said that was a list of the 2003 colors that they could order more of, and he said earlier that Maersk was no longer open for ordering for them. Hope that helps... Mark P (URL) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Official LEGO Color Chart
 
(...) Ah. All I recall was he wanted to give it to somebody who could get it to the masses. But since a list was made public by Lego I think it would be safe to put out the list that you have, if you still have it... Do you still have it? Mark P (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) Doing both isn't a problem. Actually, the question I had was how soon ldglite would check both locations. Tom (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Official LEGO Color Chart
 
(...) Is it possible that these colors are used for decorative printing of elements and not exclusively used to identify molded ABS? -Rob. (21 years ago, 8-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Official LEGO Color Chart
 
(...) Mark, Is Maersk Blue included in the picture you have above ? If so, which number is it ? Ray (21 years ago, 8-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) To be honest, I'm not fussed either way. I guess if you use multiple Ldraw applications, then using a single preferences file for all programs to locate the Ldraw directory makes sence. My only concern is that the file only be used to store (...) (21 years ago, 8-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) Ok, but remember James used the word "eventually" a few messages back. I wouldn't skip the environment.plist file in favor of the org.ldraw.plist file just yet. Do both files, or just the environment.plist file if both is too much work. (...) (21 years ago, 8-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) I like the idea of a single repository of ldraw-related settings. I'd also be satisfied with the short version of the plist name (with org.ldraw.apps second). The key and string for LDRAWDIR do match the draft environment.plist contents from (...) (21 years ago, 7-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) Sorry! No, I meant a preference window. James (21 years ago, 7-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) When you say "pref pane" do you mean a "PreferencePane" that goes into "System Preferences...", or do you mean just a way to set the preferences from a dialog box opened by selecting "Preferences..." from the application's "Application" menu? (...) (21 years ago, 7-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
I vote for org.ldraw.plist because it's short and simple. However I could probably be convinced to go for org.ldraw.ldrawconfig.plist because it's like com.apple.internetconfig.plist, or maybe org.ldraw.apps.plist, but not the one with mac in it. To (...)

  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) No, Apple doesn't encourage that. And you are right, it shouldn't be named org.ldraw.ldrawdir.plist. Most preferences for a single application are stored in a single file. Some applications use entire folders (especially web browsers--so they (...) (21 years ago, 7-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
 
(...) Unless I'm misunderstanding, I think you would be much better off if you drop ".ldrawdir" from the plist filename above. That way the file can contain other settings in the future in addition to the LDRAWDIR setting you have now. Or put (...) (21 years ago, 7-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Central location for LDraw prefs
