(...) Why not just work out the longest side of the cylinder you need, and extend the hose segments by that much on each end? That would reduce the file size even more. BTW, if you do decide to go with your solution, and come up with a result, you (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hello Kevin, (...) What about using 4-4cyls primitives placed to the end of hose segments? Scale their length to (hose diameter)*tan(angle/2). See example for a 30° angle: (URL) and (URL) know, this is not a full solution, you need to rotate the (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi, I'm a much better arithmetician than mathemetician and have hit a wall with LSynth. In an attempt to reduce file size, I've written an algorithm that merges hose segments together (based on an angle error limit). This dramatically reduces file (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Thanks! When rendering single images (entire model), the camera globe coordinates affect the rendered results. When rendering building instructions, MLCAD's ROTSTEP meta command controls camera location (or model rotation. Who can tell the (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
