Franklin, In your estimatation, how many files are waiting for fixed primitives to be certified? Right now, of the 77 primitives on the system, I count 7 as being fixes. Here's another viewpoint: Any primitive files in the PT system *should* have a (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) For a linetype to include a 'function' in it's definition, we'd need to figure out what 'language' the functions would be written in. It's a fairly wide-open proposal. More likely, we'll add specific curved-surface primitives[1] at some point. (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Steve, There is a "bug" with the certification list on the tracker. It is considering any primitive listed in the tracker to be a "subfile", regardless of whether or not that primitive already exists in the field (i.e., has already been included in (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I was thinking over this the other day, and thought maybe could be some sort of line type p that would work the same as the type 1 lines, but istead take a function instead of a piece. This would be for primitves that the drawing program replaces (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but I discovered a problem with the use of type 5 lines at the edge of primitives. The basic problem is that there is no way for the primitive to know which direction any attached polygons are going to (...) (22 years ago, 4-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
