It applies it to everything that it considers to be a part, but not a sub-part.
A sub-part is any sub-file (or sub-sub-file, etc) of something that is
determined to be a part. Adding an unofficial part header is the easiest way to
convince LDView that a file is a part:
0 !LDRAW_ORG Unofficial_Part
(Note that LDView recognizes quite a few other combinations of header text as
meaning that a file is a part, but the above is the officially correct header
text.) Putting a file in your main LDraw parts directory should also cause
LDView to recognize it as a part.
Having said all this, you might consider setting up a preference set in LDView
specifically for part authoring, and disabling seams in that preference set.

| Hi Travis. What does LDView apply the seam width settings to? When doing some part dev, I noticed it was "shrinking" a moved part, in this case, 3070.dat which includes 3070a.dat. I guess it is because it is missing an official part header? Thanks (17 years ago, 3-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
