  Parts tracker activity log filter options
Posted by: Peter Blomberg - 2025-11-13, 6:18 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - No Replies

The parts tracker activity log page contains nice filtering options. Is it possible to exclude the events that I have done so that I get a view of what others have done?

  LPub3D re-render everything for a change
Posted by: mihao - 2025-11-12, 4:09 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (1)

Hi,

I am using LPub3D to generate instructions for my MOC, and I am using the current version 2.4.9 r36.
One issue I am facing is that, whenever I modify a page, such as inserting some plain text, LPub3D will immediately re-render everything from the very first page. I don't remember this behavior in previous versions.
Is there a setting that I can turn this off? or this can be a bug.

Moreover, I can no longer enter a number to jump to that page.

Thanks
Michael

  47847 dual mold
Posted by: Massimo Maso - 2025-11-10, 23:49 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (9)

Hello,
as requested for the part 33458, I'm working on the dual mold version of 47847.

I have attached the first version I made.

I have some questions:
- The original part has various double vertices and inaccuracies. Do I correct them, or is there some reason why they were left?
- The transition of the two colors is not well defined, there is a blurred stroke. There is no way to do that with the code we currently have. Can the division I propose go?
- Should Edge and  Cond lines involving faces with different colors be split in two, or left long only in one half, as I did in the uploaded version?

  patterned parts
Posted by: Peter Blomberg - 2025-11-09, 18:37 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (5)

Are patterned parts allowed to deviate from the mesh of the unpatterned version?

It seems different authors have chosen different solutions. Some authors prefer using 5 decimals to make sure that the patterned part doesn't introduce new cond lines. Other authors find it perfectly acceptable to deviate from the unpatterned mesh and ignore the need for new cond lines.

Is there any consensus?
Are both approaches acceptable?
Is either approach preferable?
Why shouldn't the deviating mesh also require new cond lines?

  Find all subfiles for a part
Posted by: Peter Blomberg - 2025-11-09, 10:28 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (3)

I've come across parts where the main file has been certified by two or more reviewers, but one of the subfiles has not. Sometimes the subfile tree is 5 levels deep and it's easy to miss an offshoot or a subfile that isn't referenced by the main file.

Does the parts tracker have a convenient feature where I can see how many subfiles a particular part has in its subfile tree or is the only way to click through the subfile dependencies?

There is an automatic hold for parts not having certified subparts, but is that info useful before an admin has made the admin review or a subpart has been graduated?

  LDConfig.ldr problem with colour 11019 Trans_Tan?
Posted by: Jens Brühl - 2025-11-07, 20:59 - Forum: Official File Specifications/Standards - Replies (21)

I have a problem with LPub3D rendering LDView with Enable Highlight Steps.


Parts with tan colour now appear transparent instead of just highlighting the edge colour.
https://photos.app.goo.gl/JfhVyvE7CVQzUPqE7

The root cause seems to be in LDConfig.ldr with this change:

0 !LDRAW_ORG Configuration UPDATE 2025-09-18
0 // Last update: Added 11015 Trans_White and 11019 Trans_Tan


LPub3D uses the prefix 110 to show the highlighted parts with a defined edge colour:

# File: LEGOFadeStepColorParts.lst  Generated on: 11-07-2025 19:53:40

# This space-delimited list captures the LDraw static color parts (and their subfiles) to support
# step fade and step highlight. Parts on this list are identified in the LDraw library and copied to
# their respective custom directory. Copied files are modified as described in the following
# lines. If fade step is enabled, color codes are replaced with a custom code using the standard
# color code prefixed with [100].

# If using a single fade step color, color codes are replaced with main material color
# code 16 using the fade color set in Preferences. If part highlight is enabled, edge
# color values are replaced with the color value set in Preferences. If part highlight is
# enabled, color codes are replaced with a custom code using the standard color code
# prefixed with [110].

# When fade step is enabled, custom generated files are appended with '-fade',
# for example, ...\custom\parts\99499-fade.dat                 

# When highlight step is enabled, custom generated files are appended with '-highlight',
# for example, ...\custom\parts\99499-highlight.dat                 


So LDView now finds the new colour 11019 in LDConfig.ldr to be Trans_Tan, instead of the local definition of LPub3D in the temporary file 42143 - 1.1.1.1-highlight.ldr:

0 !COLOUR LPub3D_Orange CODE 11025 VALUE #D67923 EDGE #C000FF00 ALPHA 255
0 !COLOUR LPub3D_Dark_Azure CODE 110321 VALUE #469BC3 EDGE #C000FF00 ALPHA 255
0 !COLOUR LPub3D_Yellow CODE 11014 VALUE #FAC80A EDGE #C000FF00 ALPHA 255
0 !COLOUR LPub3D_Tan CODE 11019 VALUE #D7BA8C EDGE #C000FF00 ALPHA 255
0 !COLOUR LPub3D_Light_Bluish_Grey CODE 11071 VALUE #969696 EDGE #C000FF00 ALPHA 255

1 11025 -40 0 -60 0 0 -1 1 0 0 0 -1 0 65304.dat
0 !SILHOUETTE

How to solve this conflict?
Why has the colour 11019 been included in LDConfig.ldr ?
If I remove it there, the problem is solved.
