(...) I never said that it was meant to limit, only that it is made up of these colors now. Please don't take this to mean that new colors can't be added, or that it invalidates other colors. We already know of at least one color that should be (...) (15 years ago, 3-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I disagree that this was the original purpose of the ldconfig file. I can say that definitively, since I was the one who first proposed the file here: (URL). The purpose was that when *new* colors were added, ldraw software tools would have a (...) (15 years ago, 3-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) This isn't the first time that LDconfig.ldr has been updated - and it is just that, the file has been updated with MORE colors than before. I think we are loosing sight of the purpose of LDconfig.ldr... The LDconfig file is meant to be a quick (...) (15 years ago, 3-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I apparently have missed the discussion when it comes to certain colors are suddenly "not supported," but I'd like to register my opinion on it. It is a huge error to be calling colors in the ranges of 32-47 and 256-511 as "MLCad color codes" (...) (15 years ago, 2-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) That is correct. LDView has its own internal color table, which is used if you don't check the "Process ldconfig.ldr" check box in the General tab of its preferences. When you check that check box, it overrides these default colors using the (...) (15 years ago, 2-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) That's a really good new!!! since something is moving on and that's enough for me. In the while I will translate all missed color codes in the range on transparent colors to a light grey transparent (having code between 32 and 63) and all the (...)

(...) That's good! Anyway, there are still many color codes included in official parts (39,257,258,260...) that seems are not supported. I have already rosen the problem in a previous discussion and the answer was that they where MLCad color codes (...) (15 years ago, 2-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
