   Hi Remi,

Maybe you didn’t know but I am working on a WYSIWYG version of LPub, where there is no manual editing of the LDraw file. So far, almost everything has GUI point and click kind of interface with support for multiple steps per page, and callouts.

It is C++ based and written using the Qt programming tool set, so building targets for the PC, Mac and Linux should be a matter of what platform you build on.

Never one to tell people what to do, I welcome your effort in LIC.

If you’d like to help with LPub 4 instead of LIC, drop me a note. If not, have a great time creating your own application!

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

I was hoping to hear from you! Yep, I knew you were working on a WYSIWYG LPub - you’ve mentioned the idea here in the past. I just had no idea how far along you were, or if you had even started. I tried contacting you a handful of times through June/July, asking about the status of a WYSIWYG LPub and offering any assistance I could. But for whatever reason I didn’t hear back, so I started up on my own with Lic.

I don’t think it makes much sense to have two big applications that do basically the same thing in a community the size of LDraw’s. I’d be honoured and delighted to help with the new LPub in any way I can, if you’ll have it. It doesn’t matter to me where the app comes from, I’m just *very* keen on seeing a full-blown instruciton editor. ;)

Check your email!

Regards,


Remi
