Hi, recently installed LDraw but I'm tearing my hair out a bit. Many common parts don't appear to show up in LDraw part search. What am I doing wrong?



I open new model, and on the left dialogue make sure I'm at the top of the tree, then I click the lego man icon to Search Inventory:



.... then I click the filter and enter a known common part, let's say a 4x4 black plate, part number 4243819, tick all the boxes, but after clicking Accept it doesn't find the part.


Some common parts are found (such as black 1x6 plate 303226, or grey 1x4 plate 4211395), but others not (grey 4x4 plate 4243797, red 1x4 plate 371021) etc.

It doesn't make sense.

My libraries are configured as below:



I have quit & reloaded the app to update any new folder libraries/archives.

Thanks for any help.

i import a lego set in ldcad.But the partsquantity will not decrease ，just like     pattle in stud.io。I am not used to using studio，It's not convenient for MOC

Basic sets (mainly 5+/7+ with instructions) released in 1980-1984 as the first wave: Completed, except flexible ropes in some models

I've been working on a very large model, and now the MPD file won't render.  
The programs now just lock up or crash.  >__<  

Is there a maximum size to an MPD file? The one I've been working on is now 150 KB... 

I've been using LDView for the most part. This program now crashes, whenever I try to open my model. 
The other programs I've tried to use do nothing. 

Please advise. 
Thanks, 
Franklin

I uploaded a bunch (115) of Sticker scans into my Dropbox, I have not checked yet which ones are done already, but I will clean it. SO whoever feels in the mood of doing some sticker please get them.

All are scanned at 1200 DPI.

Hi everyone I hope you are all well!
I am relatively new to LDCad and have come across something which is driving me crazy!!!!! It is with regard to the screen layout. when I first started using the program there is a blue, red and green colored graph in the bottom left of the screen and when you hover the mouse over it it gets larger and a box appears around it. But this graph was far enough away from the left hand edge of the screen so that the part selector box ran to the bottom. The graph on my screen has gone right into the bottom left hand corner of the screen which means the part selector box is in front of it I can reduce the size of the part selector box so the graph is visible but that means it is not big enough!
I have tried all ways to bring the graph out to its original position but can't get it to move. Can anyone tell me if and how it can be moved??

I made a LEGO sandbox game that can import LDraw files!

Hi,

I'd like to discuss the issue raised in:

https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?s=92946

and explained in deep in:

https://rebrickable.com/blog/107/mysterious-slope/

I therefore modified 92946 as well as 15672 by adding a 0.5 LDU gap to the slopes as well as rounding the edges.

   

Have also a look at the parts:

Slope Plate 45  2 x  1
  15672.dat (Size: 2.86 KB / Downloads: 3)
Slope Plate 45.73  2 x  1
  92946.dat (Size: 2.81 KB / Downloads: 4)

If you're fine with the solution I'm gonna upload the files as well as obsolete the already official:

https://www.ldraw.org/parts/official-par...s/92946s01

as all prints are achieved by stickers.
