Is it possible to create a SVG version of a rendering of an LDRaw model? I am only interested in the visible portion, such as what you see from one of the several default views (front, left, back, etc.). -Mike (13 years ago, 31-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I think it would be cool to be able to set/input camera parameters directly. Currently, you can only export them to POV-Ray. It would be nice to be able to set them as well to get a sort of preview before a final render. I also think it would be (...) (13 years ago, 28-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)
