And now for a real dream:  inclusion of Ldraw-mode-like support for
flexible elements.  If MLCAD could somehow utilize the programs that
create flexible elements, I'm sure we'd see many more people making use of
these elements.  They really add a professional touch to models.

Can you explain in more detail, how this should work. Maybe you have an
example where I can see something like this ... and then please tell me how
it works :-)


I insert hoses like this :
first I create my model in mlcad,
then I create the hose in ldraw-mode and name it hose1.dat
last part of my model in mlcad is hose1.dat
then I save my model in mlcad and if the hose is not right,
then I change it in ldraw-mode save the file there, open a new file in mlcad
and then reopen my model wich is in the recent file list.
It could help if mlcad had a menu command wich lets us flush the submodel
cache, just like there is a menu command the flushes the part cache

(...) mlcad (...) If the model is not right , it may be easier to open it with ldview. then you can just recreate the hose untill it looks right. (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I suggest a DLL plugin system like Photoshop. MLCad could search the directory it was executed from for files with the appropriate file extension. These files would be loaded as DLLs. These could have handlers for returning a name to be added (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
