  What happened reagdring formalisation?
 
It's in the title but what was eventually decided about formalising LDraw.org? I ask because I had a new meta command I wanted to submit and wanated to send it to the right person!

  Looking for editors...
 
Hey... I'm working on changing the LDraw.org download section by adding OS-specific sections, and download pages broken down from there. It will start off with Windows, Mac, and Linux sections. Currently, I have a Mac editor, and I would like a (...) (24 years ago, 10-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad)

  Whats the difference between 6218 and 6259 ?
 
I have a half cylinder 6218 in front of me. It looks exactly like the partsref image for 6259. Partsref does not have an entry for 6218. The parts list from peeron.com identifies both as 'Cylinder 2 x 4 x 4'. Anyone know the difference between these (...) (24 years ago, 9-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Part number for baseplate?
 
I haven't seen one in years, but I recall that the Homemaker sets included a mid-size blue baseplate with studs along the perimeter and a textured but non-studded central area. Does anyone know the part number for this? Does it exist in LCad? Dave! (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Part numbers master list ?

There is no defacto set, because the Pyy numbers only exist for LCAD purposes, and the numbers are not allocated until somebody goes to the trouble of authoring the part - so the "Master list" is, in effect, the current PARTS.LST file in your (...)

  Part numbers master list ?
 
Has anyone taken on the task of building a master list of part numbers ? I've found several lists so far (dan boger's at peeron.com, lutz uhlmann's, lugnet partsref, etc). Each of these contains a large overlap, but none is complete (or as complete (...) (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Excellent. Thanks for clearing that up! Dave! (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Overlapping linetypes?
 
(...) As long as the overlapping areas are coplanar and use the same color, this approach is valid. I frequently use this approach to draw rings, when there isn't a single ring primitive which fits my needs. Steve (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Edger utility available
 
Wouldn't you know it--there was a minor bug in the code. The edger in its first version would sometimes lock up when checking for overlapping lines in certain cases.

For some of the more complicated designs on patterened elements, the path of least resistance suggests to me that a certain amount of overlap by two linetype statements of the same color might be the most efficient way of covering an area. As a (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
