  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) Eh? I feel left out. Why does it only mention L3Lab and LDView When it seems to work just fine for my favorite "user defined" external program as well? Actually I'm not sure what the polling interval does... Don (20 years ago, 13-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) OK, I looked it up. You want to make sure both of the following menu options are checked: Process->External Programs->Polling->Poll to L3Lab and LDView Process->External Programs->Polling->Poll to selected line only Then when you launch either (...)

  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) I'll check that out immediately. At the moment, I'm trying to figure out how to make the Polling option in LDDP to work as a stepper. I'm rendering existing parts by blocks of code to see how you folks created them. The STEP function will (...) (20 years ago, 12-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) The LDAO Editor has a setting to draw up to the current line only. It's on Options -> Stop-at-Cursor. Steve (20 years ago, 12-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Blender LDraw support
 
Hopefully you're still out there... This is really great that you've written this! Makes things alot easier for us who aren't that good with modeling tools. However, I'm having some problems, hopefully you can help me out? I try to import ldrs and (...) (20 years ago, 12-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) I had a really hard time finding that option also. And yet even so I'm not convinced it's in a bad place, since once I found it it made sense. I'm pretty sure it's in the polling menu. --Travis Cobbs (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) Thanks. That's just what I'm looking for. But please pardon my ignorance. I have the basic LDDP without much plug-ins. I searched every option in the standard issue, but couldn't find the _draw to selected line mode_ option. Is that option (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
(...) You can try LDDP draw to selected line mode. This will output the model from the beginning to the selected line. -Orion (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  STEP into using LDAO or LDDP
 
Other than commenting and uncommenting blocks of code, how can one step through the lines one by one? I'm trying to teach myself how to author by following examples. I'd like to be able to step through the lines of code and see what is being (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) color definitions. This new file includes several new colors, including (but not limited to): - New gray - New dark gray - New brown - Dark green - pearl gray - pearl sand blue - trans purple Some of the RGB values were based on the (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Yes ... and no. If we did produce a fully internationalized, multi-namable color definition set, we'd almost certainly include a 'default name' property for the colors. So think of the data in ldconfig.ldr as the color definitions + the (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDraw Licence Call for Comments at Brickfest
 
Links to the current LDraw Licence proposal: (URL) it seems as if the conversation regarding the licence has come to a standstill, we'd like to call for a final round of comments. We would like all LDraw contributers to air out their concerns, small (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Well, if you look at Datsville a lot, that would probably be the reason. It won't open in any version of LDView released to date. The next major LDView release (3.0) will open it. I just opened town.dat, and while it took 25 seconds to load (...) (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) The very big problem with all the nice options in L3Lab is that they aren't saved anywhere. One place to put all those options stored would be the ldconfig.ldr file, but I think it would be more natural to put it in ldraw.ini or a (...) (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) I agree that ldconfig.ldr should stay simple. But it should be possible for people to create and use alternate configuration files, including (but not limited to) alternate color definitions. Let's see, that's 4, or maybe 5, votes for (...) (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) <SHAMELESS_PLUG> That's easy, just use LDView ;-). </SHAMELESS_PLUG> It won't let you turn off all type 2 lines, but it will let you turn off all "edge lines", which are all type 5 lines, and all type 2 lines that are color 24. To be honest, I (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) The more I think about it, the more I lean towards ldconfig.ldr should stick to handle just 'color definitions' and just default border colors, rather than 'color configurations'. Where 'default' is the traditional "anti-color" that optionally (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Multiple ldconfig files really needed?
 
(...) Me too, but then again, is there really any need for more than two color setups? With this solution, you'll have to change all your alternative ldconfig files when a new color is added. I think just one ldconfig.ldr file would be an advantage. (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Maybe so, but I still like it. :^) Besides, it's really all about backwards compatibility. You're not suggesting we rename the [LDraw] key to [] are you? After all, it's just as redundant. Perhaps I'm a dummy, but I've got all sorts of LDAO (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Isn't "LDraw." redundant? It is, after all, the ldraw.ini file. --Travis Cobbs (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
