(...) Well I think I agree that it is my video driver but this is my beef... I run some fairly graphics intensive games with no problem, nothing super big graphics wise but WarCraft isn't a cupcake either. I don't see LEGO Digital Designer requiring (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) Problems like these are most often the effect of the video card and the video drivers. I have NVIDIA GeForce2 MX (I think), DirectX 9, resolution 1152x864, 32 bit colour, updated drivers, and absolutely no problems with video or saving. Make (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) It's probably a feature. The maths for converting a point on the 2D screen to a 3D position gets rather flakey when you are looking almost horizontally - I have the same problem (and limitation) in BlockCAD. (22 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) I found the easiest way to lay the baseplates was from the underside! Yes you can add pieces 'top down' if you want - the floor sinks when you add something from the bottom. I think the 'clicking' is sometimes fantastic, and sometimes just (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) It looks like they have put the zero point of the parts in one corner, not in the center point as in LDRAW. OTOH, when you are tilting a part (up arrow) it's not rotating around the same point, but that may be an effect of the snapping. (...) (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

(...) I'll try that. (...) Picture 4 2x2 bricks together as a square. (2 bricks wide, 2 bricks long) So you have a model that is 4 studs x 4 studs. If I were to rotate one of those, around its own corner, it would move itself out of that 4x4 (...) (22 years ago, 10-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) Thanks, placing pieces I have figured out. I can now sporadically save with some manual preferances set but it is very sporadic and the graphics are real flakey. I love the idea but I am runing on a pretty beefy Windows XP machine and these (...) (22 years ago, 10-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego, FTX)
