I changed the numbers until L3lab loaded the part without complaint, then tried
to position it in MLCAD by entering the correct position (moving with the • mouse
didn't work, it snapped only to multiples of 5 though my 'Grid off' setting • says
step 1). When I entered the position, the part was moved, rotated to some
arbitrary and SHRUNK at the same time. What more, you don't have a change to
enter the correct rotation matrix as the values are overwritten at the same
time you press the use matrix button (and if you press 'Cancel' the above is • done
anyway, leaving you no way out). At least it should give the old values as
rotation vector AND matrix, allowing you to choose which one suits you best

I hope this helps tracking down the bug, I really enjoy use this great • program.

Agreed: Pressing CANCEL is ignored by MLCad ==> bug

I could see a problem with the PosRot dialog in case of primitives, for
complete parts it seems to work. I hope this is where you had problems too.
Be careful when not using the absolute mode (check box between OK and CANCEL
not checked), in this case the rotation-matrix and position is not set but
added!

I cannot verify the movement problem, in my case the part (or primitive) is
moved as specified in the settings (Have you selected the right grid?)

(...) I'm sorry, but I have found just another bug as it seems: I was trying to to fix the singular matrix error in the minifig torso subpart and had figured it had to do with som missing number in the rotation matrix. I changed the numbers until (...) (24 years ago, 8-May-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.trains)
