  BrickDraw3D comments
 
I like having a parts list. It makes a HUGE difference. I also love being able to click and drag the parts. What determines what plane the part is dragged in? The single feature that makes this version unusable for me is not being able to zoom and (...) (23 years ago, 24-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

  Update: BrickDraw3D 0.5b fixes folder bug on OS X
 
Version 0.5b (says 0.5 in Finder until you do Get Info) New features: Can choose LDRAW folder in the carbon version. Let me know about this. Cleaned up the rendering options greatly. Added Smooth Edges option. OpenGL mode has transparent parts (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

  Re: Anyone besides Erik out there?....
 
(...) Cool. I suppose I could give an update. I have learned perl and used it a bit at work. And I am learning Cocoa in my spare time. I can read it now, but not write it. And I need a reference to figure out what most stuff does. So I am not doing (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.5 Released for OS X
 
(...) This didn't work. The classic copy of BrickDraw3D doesn't even save the preferences. It worked in Classic though. But, every time I launched it, I had to select the LDRAW folder. I tried this in Classic and I booted to OS 9 to see if it would (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.5 Released for OS X
 
Sorry about the preferences file gotcha. The workaround is to copy your preferences file from Classic. Choose the LDRAW folder in Classic. Copy the file from /System Folder/Preferences/BrickDraw3D Preferences to ~/Library/Preferences/ cp "/System (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Anyone besides Erik out there?....
 
(...) As an update, since returning from vacation about a month ago with my new DDR Mac, I set about getting my code to work in OSX. At present I have versions of my program in both "Classic" and "Carbon", with the Carbon version being Aqua aware. (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Anyone besides Erik out there?....
 
Hey, I was wondering if anyone was doing anything. This list has been very quite except for Erik (and me). I know Erik is working on BrickDraw3D. I think Ldglite is pretty much as far as it is going to get on Mac OS X. I know Andrew had done a bunch (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.5 Released for OS X
 
(...) Erik, I couldn't get it to work. Here is detailed explaination of my experience using the Nov. 21 build. I am running Mac OS X 10.2.2. When I load the carbon version, it says "Error: Could not open LDRAW folder...." I click on "Select LDRAW (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.5 Released for OS X
 
Bug fixes today for MPD files. New version 0.5a is what you currently get when you download the latest. (23 years ago, 21-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.5 soon
 
(...) meeroh says: you linked in a 'usro' resource, which tells the Finder what app to open a doc with. Find the offending 'usro' in your project and delete it. thanks meeroh. (23 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  BrickDraw3D 0.5 Released for OS X
 
Features in this release (0.5) Runs native on OS X. Opens MPDs (first release of this). OpenGL mode is much better looking. Changed windows and menus. Improved parts list window. Bug fixes. Known issues MPD: please report problems: send me MPDs that (...) (23 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)  
 
  BrickDraw3D 0.5 soon
 
(...) It's close to a 0.5 release for both Carbon (OS 9 or X) and Classic/OS 9. Mycket tack to Mikael Arctaedius for his quick support on The Object Plant, a tool I use heavily. 0.5 brings MPD support, improved OpenGL rendering, and a cleaner parts (...)

  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.4 released
 
Yippee. I use OS X only now, so I would very much like to see Brickdraw3D on OS X. Anyone doing anything else right now? I am learning Cocoa. It takes awhile to be useful though... James (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 0.4 released
 
BrickDraw3D came back to OS X 10.1.5/CW8.1 yesterday as a Carbon app. The same old problems exist, but, instead of crashing OS X, they generate nice little access faults which are caught normally in the debugger. There are about a dozen bugs to fix (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  BrickDraw3D 0.4 released
 
It's available. It's very cold out here on the outdoor internet park so I can't hardly type much about it. (URL) features since 0.3 include (I think) real useful piece drag-and-drop abilities, floating palettes, inline part command, save as 3dmf (...) (23 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac) ! 
 
  Re: Mac LDView possibility
 
Ok, so I downloaded the frameworks, figured out after awhile that I need to compile them and put them in /Library/Frameworks (got a warning for AJRInterface). Compiled LDView, after fixing the error mentioned earlier, I get this error: (...) (24 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D bleeda
 
In this build, dragging is in full color (not blue.) A new feature is another color palette window: choose the color for a part by dragging it through a color swatch. Duplicate (Cmd-D) is implemented but not great. Still can't drag *out* of a model (...) (24 years ago, 20-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D bleeda
 
Version 0.3 has been revised again. Parts in parts list drag to model in color (useful). They drag out as full lines of DAT (not much use). No dragging from model view. Betta than the last build (not all are.) (URL) (24 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
