Congrats, guys. So I can expect that ldraw.org will start moving again? *wink* ;) Tim--I haven't got the time just now, but I'm looking forward to seeing your brickshelf gallery to see what you've been up to. Adrian (18 years ago, 5-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) The lines do end up with different thicknesses at different places due to the way they get drawn. As far as I know, thick lines in OpenGL are drawn such that a section perpendicular to the line direction is all drawn at the same Z depth. So (...)

Travis, Those images are very impressive! The lines are big and bold, instead of disappearing into the surface they are supposed to be outlining. They are instruction-grade. I will say, however, that MegaPOV does a better job doing stud outlining on (...) (18 years ago, 7-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

(...) For what it's worth, I don't think most people are aware that OpenGL can be used to render images at arbitrary resolutions. Most video cards don't support rendering directly above 2048x2048.

When I added printing support to LDView in Windows, I made it generate an image using tiling that was at the printer's resolution (or maybe I maxed out at 300DPI; that was four years ago, so I (...)

Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and suggestions. Unfortunately, Bricksmith does not have any native ability to export the images it generates. Since they would be unsuitable for printing anyway, this feature is not apt to ever appear. What I (...) (19 years ago, 22-Mar-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
