  Re: Feature requests for LDraw/LEdit v. 2
 
(to jump in, or to stay out. Decisions, decisions. Oh, what the heck.) Why wait for LDraw2 to come up with better ways to produce part-files? It would be *great* if LDraw2 can handle multiple source-file formats, but that's a different issue. I (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Feature requests for LDraw/LEdit v. 2
 
(...) Yes. (...) And you still need a simple representation of a POV part to be able to use it in an modeler. /Lars (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Technic Cam 6575
 
(...) it "Catch Cross" in LDraw. How about: "Technic Connector with Axlehole" And how about the number? Do anybody know what it is? Fredrik (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD format
 
(...) Yes, I agree. But MPD is not very parser-friendly. You read the file and half-way down it says: "Oh, by the way, I'm an MPD!" How are you supposed to avoid complaining about garbage lines before the first "0 FILE" without parsing each file (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDLite 1.7 suggestions
 
(...) Great! I just ran into another problem. The "Continuous" checkbox in the Options does not work. I wanted to view Karim's AT-AT and have it auto-rotate, but quickly found that the continuous feature wouldn't work. -- Terry K -- (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD format
 
(...) While I appreciate the LDAO modeler, I find it awkward to use. It is a good effort at making an ad-hoc modelling tool, but leaves a lot to be desired. So I use it only occasionally. For large models, I prefer LEdit, imperfect as it is. -- (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Problems with LDAO, L3PAO
 
(...) If you are using LDAO 1.4..5 try this: Make a backup copy of your ldraw.ini file in /windows. Then open the primary ldraw.ini file and find the [Categories] section. Delete all entries in that section. Save the file and try running Make (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Feature requests for LDraw/LEdit v. 2
 
The *strength* of LDRAW is the Type 2 and Type 5 lines. They are key to making rendered instruction sheet output look good. AC3D is a modeller that supports both triangles and lines, with POV and DXF output. I encourage you to check it out at: (URL) (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD format  [DAT]
 
I think valid drawing lines before the first "0 FILE" of an MPD file should not be allowed (comments and garbage lines are OK). Either it is an MPD file, or it is not. If valid drawing lines are encountered first, well, here's an example of what (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDLite 1.7 suggestions
 
OK: Stop button is officially on the TODO list. A backwards redraw would be nice, but I don't see an easy way to handle it in the code. The LDAO modeler can be useful here: you can set it up to only draw lines that are highlighted in the editor, or (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
