| | | | | (...) I'm actually somewhat UNhappy right now. Maybe I'm a bit of a nut, but are these the first ldraw extensions that come with a lizence agreement?

| | | | | | | | Let me just say before I get started here that I think Michael has made a terrific contribution to this community with MLCAD.

| | | | | | The ROTATION command is a LDLITE command, not a MLCad command. You will find information about this command in the ldlite documentation I guess. Sorry for the late reply, but I was busy in the company and on holidays later. Regards, Michael "Steve (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

| | | | | | (...) Actually, LDLite has a ROTATE command, which is different than MLCad's ROTATION command. ROTATE is literally a directive to rotate a set of command-lines around a vector by a specific angle. ROTATION seems to define a point in space around (...)

The word "CENTER" breaks the standing LDraw tradition of using British English terms anyway. In my opinion it (...)
