(...) Yep, it is cool to have my model as the edit mode screen shot. It is the first model that I created entirely with LDGLite too. I just finished downloading 1.0.0. I'll give you a report as soon as I have had a chance to do some testing. Chris (23 years ago, 7-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Ok, I might've fixed all of this. If not, I'll have to make a 1.1 release real soon because I couldn't wait any longer. Ldglite has finally reached 1.0. Give the OS X executable a spin and see what I missed. (URL) the way, Tom Bozzo sent me a (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

Changed model Pressed "command+s" (menu lit up) Pressed "command+q" I was greeted with a dialogue box that stated that the changes hadn't been saved and asked if I wanted to save them. I dismissed the dialogue box, and quit. I launched MBC 0.6.2 and (...) (23 years ago, 2-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) QTVR works great now. The rotating parts is nice. I like the axis of rotation. Now we need it to snap to 10 or 15 degree rotations when dragging with the mouse. Multiple part rotation doesn't work. See my robot's left lower leg: (URL) kinda (...) (23 years ago, 1-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

A user flags field, so that you can enter in camera and light values if you know the flag values. (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Chris, Unfortunately the answer isn't necessarily simple. In the parts files included with Brickdraw 3d, I found an error in part 590 (Train Engine). At least one of the Type-2 lines is corrupted. However, I didn't notice the error in the file (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) So you're saying that if I ask for the GL_RENDERER etc strings after a window resize I'll get the same ones I started with no matter what?

(...) OK, I looked at the code above, and all it seems to do is tell its OpenGL context to update every time the window is resized. If their glut doesn't do this, then it is broken. As far as I know, there isn't any equivalent to this in Windows. (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Found some more info. This makes it even more clear. (URL) it only shows icky Cocoa code. I may have to examine the apple glut sources to see how much of this is actually handled in glut. I wouldn't be suprised to find some bugs there. And I (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev)
