| Partial reviews |

How should partial reviews be mentioned? Is there a short list of items that can be used for classifying partial reviews? Like a,b, and c checked, but d, e, f, and g not.
Perhaps: - Edger2 (with default settings)
- BFC, Gaps, Edges
- Overlap, Vertex rounding
- Prim use, complementary cond lines, prim substitution
- Origin
- Fit/clash with other parts, Help
- Links, Number/name, Visual similarity to real part/pictures
- Keywords, Description
- History, Admin stuff
My review process looks something like this:
Make a search/filter in the parts tracker to obtain a batch of similar parts for review. If a part has unresolved issues in the existing comments or a hold vote I accept, it won't be selected.
Mainly freeform parts
-Edger2 with default settings. On error report findings as hold or comment. When I'm lazy, I only report what Edger2 complains about. Otherwise, I try to figure out why Edger2 complains to make the error report more useful.
-BFC, Gaps, Edges in LDView. On error report findings as hold or comment. Important to mention coordinates.
-Origin, Prim use, Overlap, Vertex rounding, compl cond, prim subst. On error report findings as hold or comment
-Fit to other parts, bottom stud connectivity, Help. On error report findings as hold
-Links, Number/name, Visual similarity. On error report findings as comment
-Vote certify if no error
Mainly geometric primitives
-Origin, Bounding box, Fit to other parts. On error report findings as hold
-Prim use, Edges, Gaps, Overlap, BFC, Vertex rounding. On error report findings as hold or comment
-Links, Number/name, Visual similarity to real part/pictures. On error report findings as comment
-Keywords, Description, History, Admin stuff. On error report findings as comment
-Vote certify if no error
This means that only a subset of parts in a batch make it all the way through to voting certify. The complementary subset ends up with partial reviews.

Hello everyone,
we are currently working on a project that requires a number of custom LDraw parts. To keep everything compatible with the official LDraw standards, we are looking for an experienced LDraw Part Author who can create high-quality, highly optimized .dat files.
This is paid work, and we are looking for someone with the following experience:
Requirements
- Strong experience with LDraw part authoring
- Ability to create primitive-based, clean, and efficient geometry (minimal triangles, correct use of subfiles, primitives, condlines, BFC, etc.)
- Familiarity with the LDraw Part Authoring Guidelines
- Ability to work with custom elements, modified versions of existing parts, or completely new parts based on STEP/OBJ files
- Experience with LDPartEditor and LDraw primitives is important
What we provide
- STEP/OBJ reference files
- Technical drawings or measurements if needed
- Clear specifications for each part
- Potential for ongoing paid collaboration
What we expect
- Clean, optimized .dat files
- Correct BFC usage
- Correct origin and grid alignment
- Use of LDraw primitives whenever possible
Volume of work
We need several custom parts and are looking for a reliable long-term collaboration.
How to apply
If you are interested, please reply here or send me a private message. 
Thank you!
Ansgar

| LPub3D re-render everything for a change |

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
