Hmmm I actually create my rendered files a little differently. If you use MLCAD, you most certainly can see the x,y,z co-ordinates in the bottom left corner when you move the mouse around in the Top, Down, Left, Right, Front and Back "View Angles" (...)

The options for rotation points don't seem to be working 100%. The rotations themselves seem perfect, but the point of rotation selection options are having some trouble. I would assume that the "Part Center" option means that the part will rotate (...) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) As long as we're taking the time to be official, we should also be correct. The "Trans" color names shouldn't be short for "Transparent" because transparent means a lack of color. The "Trans" should be short for "Translucent" which means (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

This post is here to start a discussion on color names for obscure combinations made by older programs. In LDLite, a few colors were added to the existing LDraw/LEdit palette. Among them were 21, the glow-in-the-color, 25, the reddish orange, and 2 (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Move the mouse over one of the buttons in the color-bar. Right click this button and a color-dialog will be opened.
