  MLCad *has* no perspective display (was Re: MLCAD wrong perspective display?
 
(...) These 3D views are not perspective views. They are isometric. In a perspective view, parallel lines not exactly in the plane of the viewer eventually intersect (at a vanishing point). This matches how we see things in reality, since distant (...) (23 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  MLCAD wrong perspective display?
 
No doubts, MLCAD is the best LCAD modeller. However, I use it since version 1.7 and I am still disturbed by display in perspective view. Basically, what is strange is that close things display thiner while distant things display larger. The reverse (...) (23 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: LGEO and MLCAD colors
 
Isn't the color code for green #2? I think #10 is the "solid" version of the color used for "transparent-neon-green", which would explain why the tree appears bright yellowish. (...) <snip> (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: LGEO and MLCAD colors
 
Hi, I had problems with rendering color green in L3p. Weird. I made a geen tree, which shows up alright in LDraw, Ldlite, Mlcad, L3lab, and LDView. But, when converting via l3p it renders grey in POVray, instead of green. The default color in the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Parts list bug?
 
(...) Thanks. I look forward to the new version! I hacked around it for what I needed but I sure can use this working right in future, my models continue to get larger, the one I am working on is really close to 1000 pieces total, so fixing it by (...)

  Re: LGEO and MLCAD colors
 
(...) Hi Lutz! :) (...) Great! (...) You could include both... (...) You can refer to the LDraw FAQ for various color numbers. The >16 numbers aren't recognized by LDraw, but are recognized by LDLite, L3P (I think), MLCAD, and L3Lab. For RGB values, (...) (23 years ago, 13-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Parts list bug?
 
(...) Larry, you are right - that is a bug. I've already corrected it and going to release a new version of MLCad soon. Thanks for the bug report. Regards, Michael (23 years ago, 13-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Parts list bug?
 
I am running MLCad 2.00 R 4 and I think I may have found a bug in the report for parts I have a large model with several submodels. If I check parts per step and leave submodels unchecked it seems to generate a correct list for the main model. But (...) (23 years ago, 10-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: How to set up my own catagories?
 
Well, found out that if I start MLCad indirectly by double-clicking on a .DAT or .MPD file, the default grouping is shown. But if I open MLCad first before loadint a model, then the groupings I set up are shown. And I am using an older (v1.99) (...) (23 years ago, 10-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: How to set up my own catagories?
 
(...) I've looked up the code and recognized a small bug there. There is no message when it cannot save the group. I guess you do not have write permission to the mlcad directory (e.g. if running from a cd-rom). Also if you have any older version (...) (23 years ago, 10-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
