Hmm.  Oh, right; apparently, the file drag-n-drop to directory • stuff isn't
done, yet.

That's what I figured, just wanted to make sure though.

The other thing is, on the computer I'm on now, the family
computer,
I had a problem with the last version of LDAO in that whenever • I
would type something I would lose my mouse pointer and have
to get it down to the Windows Taskbar and click on the LDAO
button(or any other one that happened to be open) to be able • to
see my pointer. So, since I hadn't had a problem on my
computer(not this one) with the next to last update, I assumed

that it was just the computer. But, I put the new version on
that computer and I have the same problem of my pointer • disappearing,
so I am inclined to think that something may have been changed
in the code for the past two versions to make this happen.
Steve is this something you can look into?? Is anyone else
having this problem??

I'm not sure where to start with that one.  Is there a specific • part of the
program where you're having a problem?  Does the pointer • disappear, or does
it go to an hourglass?   Have you checked your video drivers?

The pointer will disappear(like it's gone behind the page), then
I must
bring it down to the Win. Taskbar so I can see it. Then I can
click on
any of the buttons down there, then I can move it around and see
it just
fine. It will do it in any part of LDAO when I do any typing,
except for
hitting delete, but any letters, numbers, or any other keys that
you would
use. Also it won't happen if I do ALT-F or something like that.
The places
that I've noticed it(because I use them a lot) are the NEW FILE
and EDIT
MODEL.
LDAO is the only program that I have this problem with so it
shouldn't
have anything to do with the video drivers.

Then I found a problem with Ldraw/Ledit. While the
subdirectories are nice, they aren't any help if you have a • model with
submodels, as Ldraw/Ledit only looks in the parts, p, & models • directories,
not even the current directory.

Yes, this is a "documentation issue".  The subdirectory support • is only
good for LDLite and L3P (and other, smart, tools).  So the • documentation
will have to indicate this situation.  Having an option to hide • the
drive/folder controls would be good, too.

Steve

So does anyone know the status of the Ldraw2 project????

Hope the info helps somehow. If you have more questions please
ask
before late tomorrow afternoon, as I will be leaving for a
two-week
vacation.
