  My latest idea / project
 
Hello, I'm working on something called "edraw" for now if you all don't like the name I'll change it but for alpha previews will be called edraw and for final release will be called somthing else. What is it? Well is going to be a mix of ledit and (...) (22 years ago, 9-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New tool for making minifigs
 
(...) OK, I've downloaded the source. I took a loo and I've mostly figured out it works but could you explain how I incorporate this into my current form? -Orion (22 years ago, 8-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: New tool for making minifigs
 
(...) I know, but I never got around to compile LDGLite myself with that feature activated. And now I have simply copied "/home/dheyse/ldglit...e/ldglite" to "/usr/local/bin/", so I can use your latest version. :-) Play well, Jacob (22 years ago, 8-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) You could use LDGLite. It can supposedly (I have never managed to get it to work) render a LDraw file off-screen directly to a BMP or PNG file. (...) I expect something like: winexec("ldglite -q -mS model.dat"); will work, but you should read (...) (22 years ago, 8-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New tool for making minifigs
 
How do you make your Delphi apps that can show you a preview of what you a building or making in dat format? I tryed with something like winexec(ldraw model.dat -ms) but is not good as it runs ldraw and changes screen to full 320 x 240 and then back (...) (22 years ago, 8-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Thanks Roland! I think that's exactly what I was looking for. Sometimes I wish there were a dictionary or cross-reference for people that know what a keyword is named in one programming language.
