  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
(...) I you're running Emacs, you can use my LDraw-mode to do inlining. And you can even choose the number of decimal places to preserve! It defaults to two, though. Inlining in Emacs has the obvious advantage that you see what you get while still (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
(...) Whoops, I almost didn't read that. :-, But a cut and paste won't necessarily restore the origin of the sub-model, will it? My main reason for using sub-models is to place the origin in a weird spot, usually for rotation purposes. I agree that (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: LDAO Suggestion
 
(...) Hmm. Would it be acceptable to present this view, but not support rendering the files in the subdirectories? That is, if you have a subfile in a subdirectory, should you have to include the subdirectory in the model when you use the subfile? (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) That only works if there is a single inline. And it doesn't actually undo the inline, it just creates a similar subfile. (...) Search the lugnet archive. Jacob's tools are at (URL).

  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
(...) Outlining can only be done with manual intervention, because there's no final delimiter on the inlined code. So the human has to select the code to outline. I *think* the matrix math can be reversed, but I'm not sure. I don't know if there is (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
(...) Inlining isn't a format, it's an operation. A file-reference (type 1 line) is replaced with the contents of the referenced file, but the color and transform (position, rotation, scaling) from the original command are applied to each line from (...)

  Re: why is it that...
 
it does not seem too dificult on your part. basicly there is simply the changes to the descriptions and then the writing of a small file detailing the changes. i could do both if you would be interested and all you would have to do is include them (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: why is it that...
 
(...) Sorry about that JW. There are many parts in those three categories, and a few in Train as well, that do need moving. And they will probably all eventually get moved. I am sure you could (and can, and do) come up with lots of suggestions. Be (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
