    Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Larry Pieniazek
   (...) I would like to identify if a much simpler program exists... given a red/green render like L3Lab mytest6 can produce and a way to tell which quad/tri goes with which render, let me point at a quad/tri and just reverse the order of the vertices (...)

        Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Chris Dee
     (...) I use LDAO in combination with L3Lab. - Ensure your dat file has a "0 BFC CERTIFY CW" - Set the "stop at cursor" option in the LDAO editor. - Set the mytest6 and autofresh options L3Lab (and leave the BFC option on) - Step through the file in (...)

         Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Thanks... I am having trouble with these instructions, maybe I'm not running the right versions of things? I have LDAO 2.1.8 and L3Lab 1.2. I'm not sure what the autofresh option is... when I launch LDAO editor on my part, I set the viewer to (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

     (...) Yes - "Poll, silent update" - that's the option - it refreshes for me (400Mhz Celeron) every one to two seconds. Not sure if you can control the poll frequency, though. Lars, can you answer this? Chris (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Steve Bliss
   (...) What would be especially good is if there was an option to test and flip adjacent polygons. Once the winding of one polygon is known, adjacent polygons can be automatically wound correctly. So you click one red polygon, and all the polygons (...) (22 years ago, 12-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Don Heyse
     (...) I'm not so sure this is completely true because we allow overlapping and intersecting polygons. In fact, there is nothing which prevents a single polygon face from being partly on the outside and partly on the inside. You can't automagically (...)

         Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Steve Bliss
     (...) Right. There are definitely situations in ldraw parts that won't fit the nice all-polygons-in-a-mesh model. That's why I said that auto-rewind should be an 'option'. Meaning, the user can turn it off. Although for a part to be BFC compliant, (...) (22 years ago, 12-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Ildefonso Junior Zanette
   (...) Well, my program does exactly this when it finds the correct winding of one polygon. (...) Well, I remember this thread, where Leonardo said that it created such a program: (URL) It's a long and old thread, so, search for the word "green" two (...)

        Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence —Ildefonso Junior Zanette
   Hi, I've created a simple web page with some examples of the output of my program. There you will find the remaining primitives that hadn't been certified yet and all the technic bricks certified with my program. (URL) Steve, could you put them at (...)
