What has happened is that the file has parts (32064, technic brick 1x2 with
axle hole) which have become misaligned in LDD.  I need to know if there's
an easy way to correct the rotational errors LDD keeps introducing, as can
be seen by the decimals in the line from the file below.  I don't know
enough about
LDD/LDRAW yet to try doing corrections like this myself.

Hi goffrey,

the transformation matrix for the Technik Brick is:

<Transformation ldraw="32064.dat" tx="-.4" ty="-.96" tz="0" ax="1" ay="0" az="0"
angle="0"/>

I did a LDD->LDraw->LDD test and it works fine. BTW the conversion is already
part of the .xml file that Mike Gallagher stores on his BS page:

http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/mikeslego/LDD/ldraw.xml

and I'm sure you have already red the work-in-progress tutorial at the LDraw
Wiki:

http://www.ldraw.org/wiki/index.php/LDraw_to_LDD_conversion

how the whole thing works.

Bye, w.
