  Trasparent colour in stickers
Posted by: Massimo Maso - 2022-11-18, 21:33 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (1)

Hello,
looking at the list of available colors in Colour list, I noticed that the last color in the list is the 10047 indicated as Trans-Sticker.


Is it not like we should use that for transparent stickers instead of Main_Colour 16?

  48172 vs 46481
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2022-11-17, 20:14 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (7)

Hi all,

I was looking for part 46481 and found out that it was not in the library.
Searching some more I found 48172 which seems the same.

Or is there a difference?
Should we create an alias?

  Naming of the Global Container Cargo Logo
Posted by: Max Martin Richter - 2022-11-16, 20:27 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (8)

Hi there,

we have several stickers with the "cargo container logo" but with different naming:

"Global Container Cargo Logo"
2335d04.dat
2623d02.dat
820673a.dat
169675a.dat
169675b.dat
820673j.dat

"Global Container Cargo" (without Logo)
821421a.dat

"Box and Arrows and Globe Pattern"
4867p13.dat

"Blue Globe and Yellow Box and Curved Arrows Pattern"
4864ap07.dat

In my eyes "Global Container Cargo Logo" is fine, but it is against our rule to describe the pattern, which is best done with "Blue Globe and Yellow Box and Curved Arrows Pattern".
So what naming should be chosen?

  Moved to's for file outside of the parts folder
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2022-11-16, 2:41 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - Replies (4)

Files outside the parts folder (i.e. anything in /s, p, and the p subfolders) should never be used in model fiiles. Therefore for file outside of the parts folder, I thin that if we need to "move" a file we should simply make a new file, update all the references to the old file to point to the new file, and empty the old file. No "moved to" required.

We do have library precedence for moved to's in the p and s folders (mostly in the p folders)

Thoughts?

  21562, Large Figure Armor, Leg Shin Guard
Posted by: Franklin W. Cain - 2022-11-14, 17:11 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (2)

21562, Large Figure Armor, Leg Shin Guard
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat...ge?P=21562

Per the "sticky" thread, I checked at http://www.digital-bricks.de/en/statistic4.php first, but I did not find this part listed there. 

(Edit): When I first saw the Obi-Wan buildable figure, I realized I could use that model as a source for building various comic book characters, like this one... 
   

Thanks, 
Franklin

  Question about a comment in the Parts Tracker
Posted by: Manfred Schaefer - 2022-11-12, 17:09 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (1)

Hello,

since I'm not a parts reviewer and I don't know how to reply to a comment in the parts tracker where I'm not the parts author, I'm asking my question this way

Holly-Wood has put his veto on hold with the following comment.

https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.c...314p02.dat

"This is not a part but a short-cut. However it is actually a physical colour part - something we don't want. Should be deleted."

I do not understand the comment. The rim can have different colours, here (p02) currently only one. But the tire has the colours black (p01) and bright green (p02).
When using this part, I can only pass the colour of the rim. But what if I want a bright green tyre?
The colour of the rim is currently black or transparent for a black tyre.Currently with a bright green tyre also bright green rim.

I agree with the first part of the comment, but there are other parts in the library where this classification is not correct, in my opinion.

Regards


Manfred
