The only decorated tile without a finger groove that I know

from the Homemaker set 263 dated 1974. I've no idea whether
this _also_ exists with a finger groove.

If this is the same pattern:
http://www.brickshelf.com/scans/6000/6351/6351-09.html
then, yes, it does exist with a finger groove.

Due to this information, I have deleted the unofficial, "~Moved to 3068bp17"
version of 3068p17.dat from Parts Tracker.  And I changed the title of
3068bp17.dat to "Tile  2 x  2 Grooved with Black Circle Pattern".

Isn't the style for the other grooved tiles "with Groove", not "Grooved"?

I think it would make more sense to call the other one "Tile 2 x 2 with
Black Circle Pattern without Groove", since a) the grooveless tiles are
more "exotic" and b) as a regular user of Parts Catalog, I find life is
easier when related pattern files have similar names.

(...) Yes. I thought about changing all the other tiles to match this one. :) (Most of the patterned tiles don't include the "with groove" notation, because they only exist in one form. And we can usually use those characters for better descriptions (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
