  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
(...) Yeah I know, at first it sounds like a neat idea. I felt that way about the DOS version of ldglite, for a while... Let's see. The parts library is about 30MB (5MB compressed) and your average PDA sized image might be 100K. You could fit 50 (...) (20 years ago, 7-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
My idea was indeed to be able to up or download (however you would like to call it) LDR and MPD files to the PDA via PC connection, infrared, wireless, etc. Next you should load the files into the VIEWER to show off to anyone who would like to see (...) (20 years ago, 6-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
(...) I believe LDLite was originally written with the Pocket PC in mind as a possiblity, so it shouldn't be difficult to build a version for that target. I can't do it because I don't have a Pocket PC to test it on, or the development environment (...) (20 years ago, 3-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
What I really ment was to be able to run a program like LDLite on PPC so you can view LDR and MPD files. There would be no need to be able to produce images, just view (IMHO)... (...) No need to do that then. Jaco (20 years ago, 3-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
(...) Sort of yes and no. Pocket PCs usually run 320x240 (or 640x480 on the high end ones) in 16 colors/pixel, not the fixed color palettes of the old CGA/EGA days. I've ported my work version of SVG to a Pocket PC and there's no particular problem, (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
(...) I seem to remember James Jessiman used to run LDraw/LEdit on his old laptop. Or at least, he intended them to runnable on such a system. Wouldn't a CGA/EGA laptop be morally equivalent to a Pocket PC? Of course, what's the chance that (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: ldraw programs for PDAs? (was MLCAD for PALM)
 
Hi all, Any chance to bring this topic back to attention? Would it be possible to make an LDraw VIEWER for Pocket PC (Windows Mobile, CE or other portable systems). You could indeed put the parts on a memory card and view any LDraw model (as long as (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Coplanarity Pro
 
(...) :-) I just went online to suggest that you shot down the computer and went to bed: It usually helps when the programs begins to behave funny... But I guess that advice only work here in Europe right now, as you obviously don't need sleep to (...) (20 years ago, 21-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
