I just noticed that LDview 4.3 fails on properly substituting the ring primitives
at the pockets of this sticker:

Does this maybe have something to do with naming the ring primitives "ring" instead of "rin"?

It's a combination of "ring" and a 2-digit radius. It should be easy to fix. Thanks for pointing it out.

yes.

we recently agreed on the PT to no longer use the "rin" abbreviation but stick to "ring" for primitives because there is no 8.3 file name limit anymore.

it's kind of a sad coincidence that these now nicely named prims no longer work in LDView
