    Re: Need (working) program to generate instruction pictures —Christopher Masi
   (...) Odd... one of the first things I did was check to see if LDGLite worked on my MacBook, and it worked without a problem. My first guesses are that your LDRAW dir didn't get copied over from your old computer, and/or your (...) (17 years ago, 4-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: Need (working) program to generate instruction pictures —Jim DeVona
   (...) Hmm. I'm curious how it works on your machine. There's not a problem with my LDraw directory or $LDRAWDIR definition; it's an environment variable, regardless of where it's defined. The problem isn't with the LDraw parts, its with the visible (...) (17 years ago, 4-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

   (...) Jim, I'm not a programmer, but as it was explained to me by Don Heyse, that the only way for a double-clickable Mac application to get information about unix-like environment variables is if that variable is specified in a file called (...)

        Re: Need (working) program to generate instruction pictures —Jim DeVona
   (...) OK. I've set up a proper .MacOSX/environment.plist now, but I can't see that it's made any difference. The [mis]behavior is the same. This and the video information your provided supports my gut feeling that the problem is limited to the (...) (17 years ago, 4-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

     (...) I haven't followed all of this, but I suspect this is probably a driver issue. Ldglite is getting pretty old. It's so old that when I wrote the opengl bits the hardware (and software opengl) of the time was typically unable to render the model (...) (17 years ago, 4-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
    
         Re: Need (working) program to generate instruction pictures —Jim DeVona
     (...) Good call. I ran it with -n4, and that makes things visible during rotation. The status bar and final appearance of the model (after you stop rotating, if your rotation style is different) don't get drawn until obscured by a menu, etc., so (...)

   (...) [...] (...) Oh, I thought you got no model displayed when launching the Mac bundle. I figured that with the environment.plist file, you'd at least get the the model displayed. On my old PowerBook I used this as a environment.plist <?xml (...) (17 years ago, 4-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
