  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) The very big problem with all the nice options in L3Lab is that they aren't saved anywhere. One place to put all those options stored would be the ldconfig.ldr file, but I think it would be more natural to put it in ldraw.ini or a (...) (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) I agree that ldconfig.ldr should stay simple. But it should be possible for people to create and use alternate configuration files, including (but not limited to) alternate color definitions. Let's see, that's 4, or maybe 5, votes for (...) (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) <SHAMELESS_PLUG> That's easy, just use LDView ;-). </SHAMELESS_PLUG> It won't let you turn off all type 2 lines, but it will let you turn off all "edge lines", which are all type 5 lines, and all type 2 lines that are color 24. To be honest, I (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) The more I think about it, the more I lean towards ldconfig.ldr should stick to handle just 'color definitions' and just default border colors, rather than 'color configurations'. Where 'default' is the traditional "anti-color" that optionally (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Multiple ldconfig files really needed?
 
(...) Me too, but then again, is there really any need for more than two color setups? With this solution, you'll have to change all your alternative ldconfig files when a new color is added. I think just one ldconfig.ldr file would be an advantage. (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Maybe so, but I still like it. :^) Besides, it's really all about backwards compatibility. You're not suggesting we rename the [LDraw] key to [] are you? After all, it's just as redundant. Perhaps I'm a dummy, but I've got all sorts of LDAO (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Isn't "LDraw." redundant? It is, after all, the ldraw.ini file. --Travis Cobbs (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) True. Except the current ldconfig.ldr file doesn't specify all edge colors as black. Many of them use color 0 (which is defined as RGB(33,33,33)), some of them specify #000000, some of them use other colors. (...) Hmm, somebody want to setup a (...)

  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) I never saw any of those discussions, and I pretty much kept silent about the original ldconfig.ldr file, because I never really gave the edge colors much thought. However, it seems to me that making all the edges black should be up to the (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: In dev: new ldconfig.ldr file
 
(...) Ah ha! I thought I saw some duplicates in there. Then the only thing left in [LDraw] is the various paths to find things. I like that. (...) Ok, so how about this? [LDraw.Configurations] # FILE Config Name LOCALE 0=ldconfig.ldr default EN (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
