  Re: More on Stickers (was: Questions on Stickers and Certification)
 
(...) Now that I look through my folder of parts, I'm thinking that maybe I was mistaken on this. Although a part that *I* have may use a sticker, that doesn't mean that the same part didn't also come printed. A long time ago, I noticed this part: (...)

  Re: New tool: LDDesignPad 0.3 for LDraw
 
(...) It sound like a pile of features for a basic editor. Almost too good to be true. I hope I can find some time to try it out. -Chuck (23 years ago, 26-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  New tool: LDDesignPad 0.3 for LDraw
 
Hello! I just 'released' a new tool I was working since last weekend. I called it LDDesignPad and is just a very basic editor with some LDraw functions/tools. LDDesignPad was mainly written because I am an reviewer in the parts tracker and I needed (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)  
 
  Re: More on Stickers (was: Questions on Stickers and Certification)
 
(...) I have only one printed part that looks like this one: (URL) by James Jessiman. The first occurance I know of for this part was 1998 (set 4222, according to Peeron). However, I also have several stickered 1x4s with a sticker matching this (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) There should not be. Which official parts are you thinking of? Chris Dee (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: More on Stickers (was: Questions on Stickers and Certification)
 
(...) Right. The reason I used xxxxxxa.dat, xxxxxxb.dat etc. names. (...) Hm. Not worse than for the small unnumbered parts. We could also use 3-digit numbers. (...) The origin is now placed at the center of the backface. This make easy to align the (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: How to inline a part?
 
Hello! Damn.. i just realized it's explained very well in the LDraw FAQ ;)))) Shame on me ;) I read it so many times and still I didn't remember that part of the FAQ. Off to work ;) Carsten "Don Heyse" <dheyse@hotmail.spam....away.com> schrieb im (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: How to inline a part?
 
(...) If you don't mind code, you can take a look at the Inline1part function in the ldglite source code. I think the comment density may possibly be high enough to make it understandible. Enjoy, Don (23 years ago, 24-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  How to inline a part?
 
Hello! Maybe someone can help me. What is the procedure to inline a part. I am just writing a little program and i would like to include that feature. Do i just multiply the points of the to be inlined part with the referencing line? Someone can (...) (23 years ago, 24-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Datsville anim. joint project? Was: unspectactular sound effects?  [DAT]
 
(...) running, (...) Yes, maybe. My original thought was to have both: ((URL) 0 Frame 000 ... 0 STEP 0 Frame 001 0 CLEAR 0 [Hip] 1 1 0 -40 -8 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 970.dat This way, some viewers will produce a series of BMP's. With just 0 CLEAR alone, (...) (23 years ago, 23-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Datsville anim. joint project? Was: unspectactular sound effects?
 
(...) Perhaps 0 CLEAR might be a better choice than 0 STEP for animation. (23 years ago, 23-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions on Stickers and Certification
 
(...) Reviewers should feel able to make comments like "subpart unnecessary - I would prefer these to be inlined". From an authors perspective, I have a preference to keep things modularised - that way a correction to a symetrical region of the part (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Questions on Stickers and Certification
 
(...) I think this is an important point. Subfiles are *very* useful tools for modeling parts, but we should use them with restraint. I will frequently model a part using multiple subfiles, but then I will inline all the code into a single file (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions on Stickers and Certification
 
(...) My take on this is that self-certification is a small perk for people who take the time to review *other* people's parts, and help newer authors along. (...) Generally, you should only certify parts that you actually possess. But if you find a (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: [Parts Tracker] Recent Noise and New Search Tool
 
(...) Yes, there's a chance of that. Right now, the full codes (like on the cert page) aren't stored anywhere, they're rebuilt when the cert page is updated. And they're something of a pain to calc individually. Eventually, those codes will be (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  More on Stickers (was: Questions on Stickers and Certification)
 
(...) From reading that thread, it sounds like the only reasonably solution to both the bleed and seam gap problems is to author the parts and stickers together. Problems with stickers as separate parts: Nomenclature: - 6 digits for the sheet ID (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions on Stickers and Certification
 
Hello! (...) still (...) says (...) I agree to the point too.... we need more reviewers. There are like 5 parts in the line I did... and they are there for a long time. That isn't very satisfying. I know a lot of authors who are waiting for their (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions on Stickers and Certification
 
(...) I agree that authors should not be allowed to self-certify, but ONLY if we get sufficient active reviewers to keep things moving. The last three updates would have been much smaller without self-certification. Some new reviewers have become (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions on Stickers and Certification
 
In some cases, like attached to rounded surfaces, I think the only way is to solve the problem is to create a part-with-sticker file. A sticker could be attached in many more or less creative ways, and I think the modeller should have the freedom to (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
