  Re: Problem with Seam Width
 
(...) If you are thinking about making instructions, I would strongly suggest at least checking out MEGAPOV's find_edges function. Even without using the LGEO library, the instructions output is far and away the best I have seen so far for (...) (23 years ago, 23-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Problem with Seam Width
 
(...) The LGEO parts have rounded edges. That's why it doesn't make sense to have a "seam" between the parts. And Mega-POV will not be able to identify the edges simply because there are no edges! I you want to use the edges highlighting function in (...) (23 years ago, 23-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: POV-ray question
 
(...) If I remember correctly, Bram Lambrecht posted a very good desciption about how he made instructions for the beetle model recently. I think it was cross posted to this group. What, in your opinion, are the advantages with using Anton Raves' (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Problem with Seam Width
 
I have what will hopefully be an easy question about changing the seam width. I used L3PAO to create a .pov file a few nights ago. When I change the #declare SW = 1; line in the .pov file, the seam width gets larger or smaller depending on what I (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: POV-ray question
 
This depends on what images you have been looking at. There are 2 ways that I know of creating the instruction-like images. 1) Use the keyword 'shadowless' on the light_sources in POV or 2) Use something called MEGA-POV which is an add-on to POV-Ray (...)

  POV-ray question
 
How do you setup lighting for a pov-ray scene (using anton raves povray library) so that you get those "inastruction-like" images people have been making lately? (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
