  Re: mirroring parts
 
(...) One way to do this with the tools you have at hand would be to put the portion you want to mirror in a subpart, mirror the reference to this manually, and then inline the subpart again to retrieve it mirrored. Fredrik (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Parts from 8448 not LDrawn
 
(...) Is this the same as the one in the 8880? If so then I have a mock-up of it if anyone wants it. It uses a technic engine piston to simulate the towball socket and liftarms for the sides. (...) Thanks for the info (...) -- Jonathan Wilson (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Urgh. Just hit some key which seemed to reset the body of this reply to the default text. Blech. In lugnet.cad.dev, Jonathan Wilson writes: [before that, Steve wrote:] (...)

(...) Boy, am I tired! Of course I mean: 2 24 100 24 12 200 24 12 2 24 -100 24 12 -200 24 12 (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: mirroring parts  [DAT]
 
Sure, if I understand your question correctly, that was one of the main reasons I started developing LDS. Have a look at this:. (URL) mirror x 2 24 100 24 12 200 24 12 mirror off gives: 2 24 10 24 12 20 24 12 2 24 -10 24 12 -20 24 12 and so on. (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  mirroring parts
 
Has anyone got a tool, that can mirror a portion of a part? What I need to do is change the prefix (from positive (nothing) to negative (-)) of a whole bunch of "X" values, leaving the "Y" and "Z" values intact I don't feel like doing it by hand:) (...)

(...) Details, details. Do you expect me to remember everything...? ;o) (URL) interact correctly with LDS Shell, I had to make some small adjustments in LDS. Ver 0.22 is not an official version, but at least it has the PLOT function, though (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
I'm not quite sure where I left off in this discussion, so I suppose this is as good a place as any for an update. I just hooked up ldglite to Netscape in linux by adding the MIME type "application/x-ldraw" and setting the app to (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Parts from 8448 not LDrawn
 
[X-posted to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.technic, follow-up set to lugnet.cad.dev] While building the way-cool #8448 SSS Super Car Mk II, I compiled a list of parts which have not been modeled in LDraw yet. I've included it below. I had two reactions to (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.technic)

  Re: [LDS] Is the keyword PLOT free?
 
I believe PLOT is currently unused by all known LDRAW utilities. I'm not too keen on the compiler modifying the source file, but that's your decision. So <sectors> is how many points to generate, and <total_sectors> is the total number of sectors in (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
(...) At this point, I don't even know if the ARC program is DOS or Windows, so I can't say for sure if it's case-aware or not. I'll be finding out soon, after the 2000-01 voting process. Which is going to happen (relatively) soon, I promise. Steve (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  [LDS] Is the keyword PLOT free?
 
A new version of LDS is just about ready to be uploaded. I have added a new function that has no real name yet, but I think PLOT is a candidate. What it does is hard to explain, but I'll try: It plots the coordinates of a curve and creates an array (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
