  Re: LDAO suggestions
 
(...) I was thinking more along the lines of using two areas each with all sixteen boxes, each in a different color. More visual. :-, Is there any way VB5 can put colored boxes into a drop-down list? Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDAO suggestions
 
(...) I really want to do *something* with the color chart. This is definitely an idea. Having to type color numbers is unfriendly, especially in the Modeller. Maybe instead of (or in addition to) the type-in box, there could be the two drop-downs, (...) (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: How big is your VEC dir?
 
(...) Yes, doing this automatically is one of the items on the request list for LDAO. (...) I've done this. It is *much* slower. 3x or worse. I'm thinking it was much worse, but I don't remember now. Steve (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Interpolation Worksheet
 
I've got an Excel file I use to do simple math operations, mostly to interpolate and find line intersections. Would anyone be interested in this? Steve (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDAO suggestions
 
Steve, I have a couple of thoughts for LDAO: 1) How about an extension to the color chart which allows the user to pick two arbitrary colors and dither them? It could have a dialog box with two 16-color choosers in it, and that also displays the (...) (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  How big is your VEC dir?
 
...Mine is 79 Mb in size after 9902 parts update. For speed, I don't want to go GIF or JPEG, and I'm not too crazy about reducing the rendering size for the VEC. Question #1: Will Image Magick convert 24-bit BMPs to 8-bit? Question #2: Has anyone (...) (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New guidelines on parts and numbers (long)
 
(...) Is it time to start thinking of a separate FAQ for part authors? (...) I would say this could be handled by putting the different-colored lines in different files (probably in parts\s). Then the actual part files can reference the sub-files (...) (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New guidelines on parts and numbers (long)
 
(...) That will be the way new parts are handled. Will we go back and redo (or undo) existing parts? I don't know. It's not out of the question. Steve (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New guidelines on parts and numbers (long)
 
(...) I think the current plans are to change the original lines to dark grey, and put a new silver surface on the part, 0.001 larger. ;) Steve (26 years ago, 1-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
