(...) Actually, you could try this. First scale your primitives by 0.64. Then scale the parts by 0.64. Then fix the primitives inside the parts by rescaling the type 1 lines that pull in the primitives by 1.5625. I just tried this with ldglite on (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Ah, I see your problem. You want to rescale the primitives internally, and not rescale them in the type 1 lines where they're included by the part files. If you were on linux, you could probably do this by adding a few lines of code to the (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Steve and Don, Thanks for the replies. I didn't know how to do that! Unfortunately, not only do I have to remake the _parts_(for which those tips would be useful), I have to recalculate the _primitives_, and your suggestions don't work on (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Make a one line file for each of them that scales by 0.64, and then use the inliner to pass the scale through to the part. eg. Make this: 1 16 0 0 0 0.64 0 0 0 0.64 0 0 0 0.64 knexpart.ldr Then run an inliner and save the results. (23 years ago, 18-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
