 | | MPD Parts? (and a confession)
|
|
Okay, so it is easy to display an MPD file, but what do people think about allowing part files to be MPDs? This would allow making the sub-parts that are related to a part to be packaged with the part. The trick is how to determine what file an MPD (...) (26 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Even if I was doing a "true black" background, I'd probably still want my black lego parts in a slightly off-black color. So maybe the -B option could accept an RGB value? Steve (26 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I second Steve's request for a good way to see _all_ the type 5 lines. A _feature_ in LDraw is convenient in this respect - you can change the 5s to 2s and LDraw willl ignore the spurious data at the end of the line. I think LDLite ignores (...) (26 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | LDlite "Black" not really Black...
|
|
I noticed that In LDlite, "black" is not really black... it is not quite R:0;G:0;B:0. I know that that works well for lego parts, but it would be nice if it would render true black when you select black for the background color. --Karim (26 years ago, 24-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I'd like to have more colors available in the Background Color and Default Piece Color drop-downs. Or the ability to type in different color codes. While editing parts, it is useful to set the part-color to a transparent value -- it makes it much (...) (26 years ago, 24-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

However, the memorial navigation in my opinion is lacking, but the graphics are quick to load which is a plus. (...) Yep.. Well, I hope that (...) (26 years ago, 24-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) That's not a bad idea. Maybe if we defined that as a 'miscellaneous accessory' category, and had other, more specific sub-categories, like "Minifig Tool" and "Minifig Weapon". But is a speargun a weapon, or a tool? Steve (26 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
