  MLCad Startup
 
This is just a little nitpick, but I noticed that when MLCad starts up, it isn't maximized. It is set to fill the screen, but not actually in a maximized state.

(...) You might have installed some files incorrectly. Assuming you installed in c:\ldraw, look in the directory/folder c:\ldraw\parts. There should be about 1864 files in this directory. If you are short some files, look for a 3023.dat file. That's (...) (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Usage Question
 
Is there a way to zoom into a specific area or scroll around once zoomed in? When ever I zoom in I get the center point of my model which may or may not (in most cases) be the area I want to look at in detail. Mike - mike_walsh@mindspring.com (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
