(...) I did some work on the other solution, rendering in the background. There's a beta of this here: (URL) -n2 to render each part in the backbuffer, -n4 does the whole model. Also the backbuffer is retained for faster refreshes on window expose (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I don't have any comments, except to say that I agree with pretty much everything you wrote. And that I'd be very hard-pressed to actually implement some of it. And I didn't completely understand all of your points... (...) Yes! (...) Good idea, (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I would go for this. If a line is indeed edited, then I would preserve it's indentation, but remove trailing decimal zeros, and possibly clean up other things, like changing "-0" to "0". If the file has any exponential notation, e.g, "2e1", (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) This sounds counter-productive to me. Judging from the official LDraw files, it appears that many of the original files follow these guidelines with respect to indentation: o Comments are not indented o All other lines are indented by one (...)

What consideration should an editor program make for unfamiliar content or eccentric style when it loads and saves an LDRAW file with changes? I am implementing the following general ideas in BrickDraw3D, based on various situations in test files. (...) (22 years ago, 21-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I'd like some feedback on the following. Do you like the idea? Dislike it? I've recieved a request, asking for a part number for a sticker whose original sheet number is not known. If you'll remember, we earlier discussed using the numbers from the (...) (22 years ago, 20-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
