Hey,

this release will provide four small improvements.



As always, you can download LDPE from this page:

http://nilsschmidt1337.github.io/ldparteditor/

Changelog:

(4 new features)

With this release you will be able to...

• ...benefit from a new Rectifier default setting (it will not convert quad to rect when the quad has adjacent condlines by default (results in smoother surfaces)).
  
• ...use the "Copy" command on the icon bar at the bottom of the tab, mirrored from the contextual of the "Problems" tab
  
• ...have a single background bounding rectangle for the whole string (txt2dat).
  
• ...use an alternative option to not have a background but only the characters themselves (txt2dat).

Hi all,

Can someone identfy this head, hair and torso?
The head has a stubble beard.

It is a somewhat vague images, screenshot from the LEGO Bricktales game.

Is it original and existing?
If so, are they in LDraw?

Hello! I'm new to these forums, so sorry if this is the wrong place. I'm working on code to load ldraw files and noticed that not all parts seem to use valid utf8. The file "LDraw\parts\s\2902s01.dat" contains comment lines that don't decode properly as utf8 in programming languages like Python or Rust due to a missing continuation byte. The comment renders in some editors as "0 Cran creus�". I would expect the e with an accent to be C3A9 in hex, but the file is only using the single byte E9. The entire phrase appears in the file as 3020 4372616E 20637265 7573E9. LDView displays the text just fine as "0 Cran creusé". Is this part valid? Should programs match the behavior of LDView?

Hello, could someone have a look if part 37681 is available from instructions app and share it here?

This hair piece for the elves can be used in Stud.io if downloaded from this page, but its design is not complete: the ears must be colored light nougat, so when used in Stud.io, the change of color affects only the hair. Would it be possible for someone to adapt this detail of the piece? I would greatly appreciate the help.

The parts list and search were designed in an era when there were hundreds of parts and no thumbnails. Now with thousands of parts and images it bogs down page loading or is causing out of memory error especially the parts list or searches with a large amount of search results.

Does any have any persuasive opinions on why pagination should not be used?

Looks like something just erased history lines on Part Tracker from existence. Don't see any single one on any of files

Set 60361 Ultimate Stunt Riders Challenge has a new technic panel that can be joined together to create a 15 diameter ring

 

it has pinholes on all 4 'lugs' and the two lugs on one end are 1L further in compared to the other two lugs on the opposite side which allows several of them to be joined together.

I can't find the part ID yet but it has the same curvature as the recently added LDRAW part 3250

Here is more footage of the parts geometry: https://youtu.be/8CViBKgg_E0?t=266

I imported my model and only two parts are not showing.  I cross-referenced them in Rebrickable and imported the DAT files from the official page.  But every time I upload the file they still do not appear. 

part: 93609 and 49308
