Hi Kevin,

I hope you don't mind a question.

I read your comments above and was thinking I might like to transition to that
path for creating instructions.  I've used Mega POV-Ray for a long time, but my
goal is, as you note, just to have the edge lines.

Are the versions of ldglite or LDView compatible with version 2.2.0.0 of LPub?
If not, should I upgrade to version 2.2.0.2 of LPub?

My only concern is messing up my current configs (which do work) and end up not
able to render instructions for a while.  I have an article I'm working on for
BrickJournal and will be doing instructions also.

Thanks in advance!
Allan B.
