  Re: new program to aid part making: ldraw circle creator
 
I'll see if I can find a way to change it. I don't read all the groups so I don't see all the things like that that could be helpful. Ryan ***...*** REPLY SEPARATOR ***...*** (...) (26 years ago, 9-Apr-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: ldlite color problem
 
(...) Two words (or so): 256-color display mode. You can check this by saving bitmaps from LDLite, then view the bitmaps in another program -- they'll probably look much better. Steve (26 years ago, 9-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  ldlite color problem
 
i just installed the current version of ldlite on another computer at home and for some reason the colors red and grey don't display very well (stud tops are kind of obscured or don't even show--like the colors are too bright). my older version of (...) (26 years ago, 9-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: fixed part: JW's parts
 
OK here is my judgement. (...) Very good. The lines look good even in .5x 3d view, but on the front side the green lines do not extend to the edge like on the back side.
