 | | Possible task for new LDraw author - early baseplates
|
|
Hi To some extent the growth of the LDraw parts library is limited by the fact that all the "easy" parts have already been created. This means that many new authors face a steep learning curve if they start with a complex part. But there is one area (...) (21 years ago, 13-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) With the use of a point hash table, it should be possible to do all of the analysis in linear time proprotional to the number of points in the object. So, I guess I disagree with you. Not that it particularly matters, until somebody actually (...) (21 years ago, 13-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) The desire was to preserve standard Windows INI file formatting, and each data line in an INI file has the form <key> = <value> (spaces optional). The numbers were suggested as keys, with positive responses from the people that responded. As a (...) (21 years ago, 12-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Currently my code doesn't expect all the spaces above, but I'm open to that. The LDrawSetup program that I'm also writing at the same time can not preserve the spaces if you add or delete options, so it will ruin any nice table formatting you (...) (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
