(...) Yes, that is basically why. We are trying to work out a compromise between the use of LDraw as a modelling tool and as a parts reference. Some number codes refer to specific-colored composite pieces. So using those numbers for generic #16 (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | New Touch Sensor
|

I was looking at the new parts for LDraw and was pleased to see that the '879 Touch Sensor' was not called 'MindStorms Touch Sensor' as it might have been, since the '8482 CyberMaster' also includes tree of these. For those who don't know, the (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | 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)

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)
