I don’t know if this part is on LDraw, but I’d like to request it if it’s not uploaded yet. It’s Mojo Jojo’s braincap from The Powerpuff Girls.

Thank you for reading.

Hey, I would like to request this cloth cape part.

A formed version would also be useful. Thanks!

Hi,
Some of you may know me from my book The LEGO Architect or my brickarchtiect.com website.  I'm always looking for ways to simplify the more confusing aspects of our hobby, including my work on the LEGO Brick Labels project.

In order to create the labels, I've needed to craft extremely short descriptions for each part which complement the part image.  (Because the name is always accompanied by the image, I can take some liberties to make the names shorter.)

One of the biggest challenges I've encountered is a semantic one. Different websites (including LEGO.com) use different names for each part, and even for the 'anatomical' elements within a part.  I am in the process of learnign all the names used within the hobby for these connections and anatomy - in the hopes that I can distill the most commonly used terms.


Slide showing most of the common connection types in contemporary LEGO parts.

There are several aspects of LEGO part anatomy that I'm curious to hear how they are named within the internals of the LDraw project.

For example:

• On the underside of a 1x2 brick, there is a rod between the studs to create a gap the right size for a stud to attach.  Is this called a "bar" since it is 2 units wide (in the measurement system used above), or do you have a different term?
  
• Hollow Stud - Is there a better term for these hollow studs which accept a bar element?
  
• Bar/Clip/Handle - A "handle" has the same diameter as a bar element.  Is there another term for these used within LDraw project?
  
• Mini Bar - I  have also seen "prong" as a term for this, such as in the context of relatively new part 68211
  
• Click Hinge - I have also heard "indexed hinge" and other terms - is there a common name here?
  
• Ball - This is also sometimes described as a constraction hinge - has that term been outmoded by now?
  
• Mini Pin - Is that the closest thing we have to a universal name for this non-Technic pin connection?
  

Hey there, I just realized that Mojo Jojo's minifigure torso is also missing from LDraw.

Thanks!

For band/belt templates in LDCad, the radius of a point is measured to the center of the path. I thought it would be handy to offset the path skin so that its inner edge follow the radius (i.e., the radius of the point is the same as the part it goes around).

I thought adjusting the alignment parameter was the way to do this, but it didn't work. It just breaks the path into segments with wide gaps (and they aren't noticeably offset from center).

Is there a simple way to adjust the template to do this? Or would I have to create a donor part with the origin shifted (and would that even work)?

Hello,

I am trying to implement the -CommandLinesList feature from LDView 4.4 into my application.
To do so, I created a text file that looks like this:


  temp.txt (Size: 781 bytes / Downloads: 8)

I then have the following situation: When I run ~/LdView64.exe -CommandLinesList=my_file.txt in the command line, the five .ldr files that are specified get exported to .pov format.
However, the INITIAL values (lat 50, long -111, zoom 0.56 in this case) are used throughout ALL five .ldr files. So for all five models, I have the same viewing angle which is not what I want.

Does anyone have an idea for why this occurs?
Thanks in advance

here are the .ldr files

  4035_70_0.ldr (Size: 52 bytes / Downloads: 3)
  4035_110_3.ldr (Size: 53 bytes / Downloads: 1)
  4035_128_1.ldr (Size: 53 bytes / Downloads: 0)
  4035_14_4.ldr (Size: 52 bytes / Downloads: 0)
  4035_17_2.ldr (Size: 52 bytes / Downloads: 0)

Hello, I am hoping someone here could build this part (93696pb03) in a CAD software. I would like to be able to make Togruta characters, such as Ahsoka Tano, in LEGO designer programs but I don't believe anyone has made this part in a CAD program before. I would be extremely grateful to anyone who makes this part.

Hello,


i want to request this Part:

Many thanks for help !

(For those not familiar, !FLOAT is my proposed, imaginary meta command that temporarily overrides the displayed position and other parameters of a part in an LDraw editor or BI maker. It is intended to replace older concepts like buffer exchange, which is confusing and requires extra copies of parts to be added to a model.)

I was investigating a bug report for LDCad regarding 58122 not wanting to inline.

It turns out that is because it contains skewed and mirrored parts, which imho is not needed and should be prevented in shotcut/alias parts.

The issues are:

Rough 0.033 in other wise '1 1 1' rotation matrices  (e.g  0 0 -1   0.033 1 0   1 0 0)
The blue slid direction switch is mirrored (and also has the 0.033 rounding error), using "0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 0 0" works for both red and blue sliders no need to mirror.
