Hi Don, How are the updates going to ldglite? I'd like to test it with LPub before I release a new version. I've got it all wired in for construction images and PLI and it seems to work well. I'd love to have -mf and -mF soon. Kevin (20 years ago, 29-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) The 4/3 is the aspect ratio of the POV generated rendering (matches 800x600, 1024x768, 1600x1200 etc.). If you for some reason want POV to do a high, narrow (or low, long), rendering this factor has to be changed. It's often easier to do a (...) (20 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I just wasn't sure what to do with -z and -Z. LPub has to manage ROTSTEPS and such, so it pre-rotates the model into the desired view angle. It also centers the model in the process. The default value of -z10 clips the front of the car off. (...) (20 years ago, 25-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
