Hmmm, what technique did you use to do the scaling? 0 SCALE
meta-commands, or scale and then inline. I used the inliner approach.
Here's how it goes in ldglite using the familiar LEDIT style commands
(with the scale and inliner extensions). I'm sure you can do the same
thing in LDAO.
Open a DOS window.
CD to the P directory.
ldglite -v3 -LE
i p e-rod3.dat
c 16
/ p s 0.64,0.64,0.64
/ p i
/ f s <Backspace...> e-rod3.dat
/ f e
Notepad e-rod3.dat and remove the annoying 0 STEP line.
Repeat for the other knex primitives.
CD to the Parts directory.
ldglite -v3 -LE
i p k0315.dat
c 16
/ p s 0.64,0.64,0.64
/ p i
<Page Down> until e-rod3.dat primitive line shows red.
/ p s 1.5625,1.5625,1.5625
<Page Down> to next e-rod3.dat primitive line.
/ p s 1.5625,1.5625,1.5625
/ f s <Backspace...> k0315.dat
/ f e
Enjoy,
Don

| (...) Well first of all I don't have either ldglite or LDAO! And I am not sure what you mean by 'scale and then inline,' nor am I sure of the meaning of inline/inliner in this context. I'm off to a real good start! :] I could add 0 SCALE lines to (...) (23 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
