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 scale down the line-type 1 e-rod0.dat in the
k0002.dat part file, and that would work fine (though the file of e-rod0.dat
never changed). By opening k0002.dat in MLCad and saving it, it would
integrate the scaling into the rotation matrix:
0 K'nex rod 0 green
0 Name: k0002.dat
1 16 0 0 0 0.64 0 0 0 0.64 0 0 0 0.64 e-rod0.dat
1 16 0 0 -96 -0.64 0 0 0 0.64 0 0 0 -0.64 e-rod0.dat
0
But when I tried this same procedure with k0315.dat, the lines and quads in
the file didn't scale down (it's really no surprise).
Every time I read your latest instructions, I interpret them in a different
way. So I don't know what to do
