Hi, This is something that's been bugging me for a while, but since MLCAD is free software and very useful even without this feature, I haven't made much of a fuss about it. However, I thought I'd throw it out here so others can comment on it and so (...) (15 years ago, 22-May-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

There is a bug in the generated partslist when using a new color. For example when I use a part with color 81 Metalic_Green it reports as Chrome_Black. See: (URL) this be resolved with a change in ldconfig or is a real bug in MLCad 3.30? Jaco (15 years ago, 11-May-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

--SNIP-- (...) Good thinking. Since the old colours were derived from the EGA colour palette I reckon the dithers would have to be derived from it too. Otherwise you could end up with some very different blends. I like your signature ;) Tim (15 years ago, 12-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
