(...) I just checked and the SourceForge compile farm only has 10.1 available so I can't compile it on 10.2 right now. Didn't Apple switch to make extensive use of OpenGL in the 10.2 desktop? Who knows what that may have broken. (Perhaps the patched (...) (23 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

The ldglite window in Mac OS X 10.2.2 shows nothing... I am assuming it broke in 10.2. Apple changed quite a bit between 10.1 and 10.2. It probably just needs to be rebuilt. James (23 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

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?

Sorry about the preferences file gotcha. The workaround is to copy your preferences file from Classic. Choose the LDRAW folder in Classic.

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.
