 | | Installation Problems with MLCad Version 1.6 and 1.7
|

Dear MLCad fans! I finaly found the problem for the MLCad crashes: Since version 1.6, MLCad uses color-tables. There is a problem now when the program is started for the very first time, since it tries to activate a dialog to ask the user for the (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)

| | Hey, thats a nice feature!
|

Hey, all! I just discovered a new thing about Leocad. You can save and load Ldraw .dat files! Very, very useful to me, as I used to use Leocad and switched to MLCad after it came out, and I didn't know I could save my Leocad models. Anyway, you all (...)

(...) I'll have to find something to model now to test how much I really like it :) Some little nit-picks: 1) You have to highlight the part line for the arrow and Home/End hotkeys to work, even though using the mouse or the menu buttons don't (...)

| | Re: Default offset for special parts
|
|
(...) Try using the fine grid. A good thing to remember is that you usually have to move the piece an even number (2, 4, 6, 8, etc) of times. To place axles, I move the axle so that it interects the hole as close as possible to where it should. Then (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

I'm a newbee in creating parts with MLCAD (a fantastic program), i find it very easy to use. It's easy to place bricks, plates, beams and other regular parts using the grid coarse, but when placing axles and other parts in beam holes, i had to swith (...)

(...) Some means of requesting a cache refresh would be very useful for those times when I use MLCad to review parts I am authoring. Most time the automatic LDLite window provided by LDAO is OK, but occasionally I need to see several views and MLCad (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

I'd be happy with no refresh or a manual refresh on submodel images... it's fast enough to go out and come back in, that doing that would be good enough. Most of the time when I actually care about the images for submodels it's because I built all (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

| | Re: How to break up multi-dat files?

Currently MlCad scannes a .dat file on its first access and cashes its data, these data are used for the preview which is not a problem since the data of a dat file do not change (at least not for MLCad during run-time). But the sub-models you (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
