For the CAD system I'm developing, I'm planning to have multiple ways of issuing commands: Drop-down and pop-up menus Speedbuttons Keyboard shortcuts (configurable to user preferences) and... Command line interface (like in AutoCAD) In AutoCAD I (...) (23 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Wouldn't it be neat if, when you load a model in a CAD program, if a piece in the model is missing, it could automatically download the missing part from ldraw.org for you? Or periodically poll ldraw.org to see if DAT file updates are available, and (...) (23 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|

I have added Author key in the [LDraw] section of ldraw.ini, just because I was tired of filling it in every time I run LDA2001. The value of the ident will be suggested as a default author next time you start an application reading it. Anyone who (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

If the pin is black it is probably 4459 "Technic Pin with Friction". #3673 "Technic Pin" is grey. (...) -- Calvin Walton (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I believe both parts are the same, cad wise... physically, however, the "pin with friction" has small ridges that create the 'friction'. I believe there's 8 small ones on each pin side... 16 total. You're correct, the "pin with friction" has slots, (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|

I have a part which I believe is 4459 "Technic Pin with Friction", but could be 3673 "Technic Pin". From looking at the partsref pictures, I still cannot tell for sure. This pin came from <set:8520> (which I am trying to inventory). The actual part (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I could do this without much trouble, but I don't have an RCX 1.5. It looks to me from the Mindstorms site that the back side is just flat, but the RCX they show says RCX 1.0 on it. Does your RCX 1.5 say "1.5" on it? Are there any other physical (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|
|
Just wondering if anyone has made an RCX 1.5 brick yet? The only model I saw was the 1.0 brick, which has an A/C adapter on the back. The 1.5 is missing this, along with actually saying "1.5" on the side. Also, I'd be interested in a 2.0 brick once (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
