  Help rescue this project
Posted by: N. W. Perry - 2021-05-08, 4:45 - Forum: Help Wanted - Replies (4)

So, I finished a whole project in LDPatternCreator, and when I went to export it to DAT, it hung up and I had to kill the program. When I re-opened it and loaded my project, the work was still there…but somehow shrunk down by a factor of 1,000!

How can I fix it? And if I can, would anyone be willing to try exporting it and send me back the resulting DAT file? The LPC project is attached…

  [Solved] Problems uploading to the Part Tracker
Posted by: Manfred Schaefer - 2021-05-06, 15:33 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (10)

Hello,

I received the following error message while uploading files.

   

First point, I use the letter ä in my real name. There seem to be difficulties here, presumably because of the character coding. How can I change that? In the profile, I can only change my login and password. This letter should be replaced by ae.
Second point, what does the error message "File name is not used by an existing official file" mean.  [Image: sad.png]

Greetings

Manfred

  Parts Tracker Preview Pictures of Back-Printed Parts
Posted by: Gerald Lasser - 2021-05-05, 21:11 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - No Replies

Some parts have a print only on the underside, which is not shown e.g. in the "Patterned Part Summary" or in the normal Activity overview.

It is difficult to judge which patterns are available.

These parts are:
11203 (Plate 2 x 2 Inverted with Groove)
2654b (Dish 2 x 2 without Rim)
3660b (Slope Brick 45  2 x  2 Inverted)

I cannot recall any others at the moment, for sure there are some more.

A proposal:
- We generate a list of such parts, e.g. the wildcard "11203p*"
- If the preview rendering comes across such a part it will be rotated 180 degrees
- A small icon will be added to indicate that this is the bottom up view.

here's an example:

  Better use of keyword !KEYWORDS
Posted by: Manfred Schaefer - 2021-05-05, 19:59 - Forum: Official File Specifications/Standards - Replies (6)

Hello,

I want propose a change to the file structure of the part files. This proposed change only applies to the files in the parts folder, the files in the sub-folders, such as s, are not affected by this.
These files usually contain a line with the keyword !KEYWORDS and are used to store search terms, a reference to Bricklink or other databases and the number of sets in which this part was used.
I would include three lines of the !KEYWORDS keyword. The first line contains one or more search terms, the second line is followed by the word sets, separated by a space, followed by one or more numbers of the sets in which this part was used. The third line contains after the keyword, also separated by a space, the word reference followed by the name of the reference, e.g. B. Bricklink, followed by the name of the part.
Multiple entries in one line are separated by a comma. The entries sets or reference do not need to be entered again.
The first two of these lines could be optional, the third line would be mandatory. The reference would be to Bricklink or a similar database, Bricklink would be prefered. This line can contain the words unknown or missing instead of the reference. This would look like this:

0 !KEYWORDS Reference unknown
or
0 !KEYWORDS Reference missing.

Unknown is used when creating a new part and there is no reference yet, for example. Missing would be used when updating the existing files to this supplement if no reference is stored.
For the 3626c8f minifigure head, this change would look like this:

0 !KEYWORDS Robo Emmet, Spaceship
0 !KEYWORDS sets 70816
0 !KEYWORDS Reference Bricklink 3626cpb1113

The 3626bp08 minifigure head after the change would look like this:
0 !KEYWORDS Star Wars, Princess Leia
0 !KEYWORDS Reference missing

The reference is also required if it is an unprinted part, since the names or the number of the part are different in the various sources.
For example the battery box
Lego element: 6257768
Design number: 16511
LDraw part: 58119
Bricklink number: 59510c01
The reference to a database would therefore also be a criterion for the release of a new part.


Greetings

Manfred
