  Re: txt2dat - Create LDraw files from text
 
(...) Wow, that's cool! LDRAW stuff sent to stdout. I finally get to try ldglite with a pipe from a real program, and it all seems to work. txt2dat -s hello -c 4 -p 72 c:\windows\fonts\ariel.ttf | ldglite -i1 -MFhello.png -- Thanks. That was fun, (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: txt2dat - Create LDraw files from text
 
(...) Okay, I admit it: at first I thought "text to LDraw? Big deal--I write all my LDraw partsfiles as text files." But then I clicked on the link and figured it out.

  txt2dat - Create LDraw files from text
 
Hi all, I've just uploaded the first beta version of txt2dat, a command-line program to create LDraw files from text.

  Re: Type 5 lines, BFC relevance, and OpenGL
 
(...) I'm using a display list. The triangles are drawn inside the display list using "classic" OpenGL calls (glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE....glEnd()). The lines are being drawn inside the display list using vertex arrays. Using vertex arrays to draw the (...) (19 years ago, 4-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Type 5 lines, BFC relevance, and OpenGL
 
Slower, you say? Are you executing the functions in immediate mode? Or using a display list? Because if you're not using a display list, it's no suprise that it's slower. If you are using a display list, however, then I'm at a loss. I guess it may (...) (19 years ago, 4-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Type 5 lines, BFC relevance, and OpenGL
 
So, I got the code updated so the conditional drawing happens in a display list, and then built LDView with full optimizations turned on in the compiler, and the new method actually runs slightly slower than the old method. (This is on an ATI Radeon (...) (19 years ago, 3-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

  Re: Borland/delphi question
