So, I got LDGLite working on my Mac, and dragged a file made with Bricksmith
onto it. This file has a subassembly (submodel?). LDGLite renders nicely,
except that my submodel doesn’t appear where it should be on the final
model; instead it’s sitting on the floor, intersecting the main model. Does
anyone have any insight on that?

Can you post the file? Otherwise it’s kinda hard to tell...

Apart from that, I do quite like the way it renders. Very pretty. :)

Thanks, and with the FatLines ™ trick Larry mentioned you should be
able to get even prettier output for publishing instructions, although
I’ve never actually tried it on OS X. (And I think his trick involves
a script which also calls ImageMagick, Paint Shop Pro, or some such
program to rescale things.)

Right. Set the lines REALLY fat, render REALLY huge, then shrink the image which
gives you nice antialiasing effects... LDLite now lets you set infinite canvas
How closely does LDGLite mimic the switches/flags, etc?

I think you get pretty good antialiasing just by scaling by 2 or 3. Here are some (...) (19 years ago, 27-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
