(...) I'm inferring that you are talking about converting a scanned image into a pattered subfile for a part? Then, optimally, the process requires the following discrete phases: 1) Someone[1] scans a patterned part at high resolution into an agreed (...)

(...) I'm gonna have to look into this again. Vectorizers are cool. Here's some more opensource code (3 URLs) a really nifty description of how to use the potrace vectorizer to generate edges, and the netlib triangulator to create the triangles. (...)

(...) Or you could search the net for vectorizer programs like this one. (URL) a free vectorizer with source code. (URL) wonder how hard it would be to modify it to handle color and output ldraw format. Enjoy, Don (20 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I've only looked at the hoses so far. So I don't even know what the current algorithm for rubber bands looks like, much less how to improve it. (...) True, for my first cut at the fixed length length rubber hoses I calculated the total spline (...) (20 years ago, 28-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yes, then lsynthcp can focus on the synthesis algorithms like spline, and belts. I'd love to have an algorithm for non-planar rubber bands. (...) Don, the splining algorithm gives us *no* control over the distance between the resulting spline (...) (20 years ago, 28-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Please do. I got to tinkering over the weekend and added some code to generate the fixed length 50 segment 751.DAT style rubber hoses. (URL) also tinkered with simulating 208c01.DAT fixed length chain links as a hose. I think it might work (...) (20 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

hi folks, do you fancy thumbnails for your inventory or do you feel that the parts list of your model also deserves images of the single parts? (URL) one of the ways to render effortlessly a bunch of identical part images is batch-filing LDview. (...) (20 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad.dev, FTX) !
