  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) No, I do not remember. I just updated LDAO to 2.1.4. By clicking on the Render button, I get a window that tries to run ledit.exe. It errors and gives me a "out of memory error" eh?, ok... in a DOS world... I changed the render button to use (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Hmm. Which version of L3Lab do you have? Lars had to make some changes, so it would listen to LDAO. I've got L3Lab 1.2. (...) Yeah, LDAO uses a couple of temporary files -- one file gets the current DAT code, the other file has a single line, (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Hmmm, polling is *supposed* to work in l3glite. Do you know which version you tried? The current version supports polling with the -p command line switch, although I haven't tried it lately so perhaps I broke it... Would it be useful to add a (...)

Hello Paul, "Paul Easter" <pneaster@knoxy.net> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:G41pEx.ALJ@lugnet.com... (...) Be sure to get the latest version of LDView. Only the old version had a buggy commandline feature... -- Greetings, Carsten Schmitz (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) I have version 1.2 20000616. Do I need to add a few extra line parameters after the %base%\l3lab.exe %model% %parm% line? I tried adding -pollsilent and -nocache, neither had any effect. (...) OK, I think I understand. When I do a save, The (...) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) I checked, by adding the -p to the command line, it does poll. Read my previous posting about this with l3lab. (URL) file the viewing programs are looking at doesn't seem to change. (...) Yes, it would be help. I looked for it in there. Can (...) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) I'm pretty sure I have the latest. Travis usually lets me know when there is an update. I need to read the help files on it again, I may have just missed something. Paul (URL) (finished parts) (URL) (in process) (URL) (planned) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Erk. That could be a problem. Could you send me a copy of your ldraw.ini file? (...) The viewer-setup has changed locations in LDAO. Try this: launch LDAO. Go to Options | Settings. Specify the location for L3Lab. Close the Settings dialog. Go (...) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) OK, I read that post and I'm confused. Is this a problem I can fix, or is it a problem with LDAO? It sounds like there are 3 files involved in polling through LDAO. The original DAT file and two temp files. Do I need to monitor more than one? (...) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) OK, done! (...) OK, I could do the Options|Settings part. LDAO still errors when I try to click on "view settings" (...) Hummm... not here. What do you call a "change"? Is that a character insertion, deletion, overtype, or does it key off of a (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) I'm not sure, this may just be a problem with my computer. Unless you hear from others with the same problem, Don't change anything. :-) (...) Good question. Paul (URL) (finished parts) (URL) (in process) (URL) (planned) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
A few things to note. First off, I added command line support relatively late in my LDView development. Second, my initial command line support had some issues causing it to only work in certain situations. However, the latest released version (1.0) (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
Paul, Just for grins, try the following to manually set the Editor's viewing option. 1. Edit ldraw.ini 2. Locate the section [LDAO Editor]. If that line doesn't exist, add it. 3. In the [LDAO Editor] section, look for a line like: ShowViewWindow=2 (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Neither, I think. Maybe. (...) You only need to monitor the one passed on the command line. But, if ldglite always caches subfiles, it won't see actual code changes (which are written to the subordinate temp file). When polling detects that (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Ah, that clears it right up! ;^) (...) I'm pretty sure I start from scratch whenever I detect a change in the main file, but I'll check. Is there any time when I should leave the subfiles cached? Should this be yet another commandline or menu (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Got it! the line was not there. I have played with this quite a bit, so I'll try to explain what it did. L3lab was set to the default viewer, when I open the part to edit, L3lab also starts and changes the part view as changes are made. :D The (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: A screenshot for those who ask how I make parts.
 
(...) Can you give me or send email some info on how to use the command line? I don't think I am feeding it the right information. I have version 1.0b. (...) ummm... yeah, I can't get the render button to automatically update though. I asked Steve (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
