 | | Sorting parts by location
|

Does anyone know if there exists a utility to sort parts in a model file by their "cut plane" location? I know I can sort by X Y or Z values but what I am actually interested in is sorting using a cut plane that is perpendicular to the eye vector in (...)

Currently I am _trying_ to make a microfig or nanofig model the "Defiant" from Star Trek Deep Space 9. I do it in MLCad, not for real.

Hi Tore, I get "Cannot open file C:\LDRAW\boxes.lst" when I start it. Then it runs but the only thing I can seem to do is selecting and unselecting lines. Is it possible to filter all parts out that share the same y coordinate? Greetingz... Sjaacko (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

The name of part 2637 "Technic Link 16L" is a bit problematic, because it interferes with the 3711 "Technic Link Chain" and 3873 "Technic Link Tread". Would it make sense to rename 2637 to "Technic Rod 16L"? That way, it would appear in it's own sub (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
