(...) Okay, I admit it: at first I thought "text to LDraw? Big deal--I write all my LDraw partsfiles as text files." But then I clicked on the link and figured it out. Wow, this utility is a great idea! I just downloaded it and will give feedback as (...) (20 years ago, 17-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) I'm using a display list. The triangles are drawn inside the display list using "classic" OpenGL calls (glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE....glEnd()). The lines are being drawn inside the display list using vertex arrays. Using vertex arrays to draw the (...) (20 years ago, 4-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Slower, you say? Are you executing the functions in immediate mode? Or using a display list? Because if you're not using a display list, it's no suprise that it's slower. If you are using a display list, however, then I'm at a loss. I guess it may (...) (20 years ago, 4-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

So, I got the code updated so the conditional drawing happens in a display list, and then built LDView with full optimizations turned on in the compiler, and the new method actually runs slightly slower than the old method.

(...) Have you tried doing a mainform->restore() (or whatever the Delphi version is) before closing the child? It is likely the user won't mind the window re-appearing when some long processing is finished. If you're worried about that, you could (...) (20 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Well, once again I've hit my limit.... I use a custom form for LPub's main form. I also use a simple custom form for the Cancel window that contains two buttons. When LPub is processing something that takes a long time, it does CanceForm->Show(). (...) (20 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
