(...) Now that I think about it, it probably isn't necessary. I had a hard time positioning things on the end using John's mock-up, but I just realized it was probably because he was using one of the 'stud' primitives. So, Nevermind. ;) Jeff (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Hadn't thought about that. Is it that important to view a stud instead of a line in LEdit? Seems like this piece has a 'normal geometry', so that it wouldn't make sense to defeat the line-as-stud option. (...) Yes. Steve (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Just thought I'd mention that the wireframe view in LDLite is a great tool for part authors to check the edge lines and conditional lines in their parts before submission. Edge line omissions are usually much more obvious in this view, so take a (...) (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) There's a Sort function, but it sorts by position, bottom-to-top, back-to-front.

(...) Hmm. I don't remember hearing about this problem before. Probably did, and it fell out of my brain. I will look into the LDAO/inline code, and see what's up. Steve (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I've thought about writing a function in LDAO to sort a DAT file by line-type: first the 2 (edges) and 5 (conditionals), then the 1 (may be edges, surfaces, or both) then the 3 (triangles) and 4 (quads). Steve (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
