  Part 6179 error in Studio
Posted by: N. W. Perry - 2020-03-18, 4:45 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (9)

I can't get 6179.dat to load properly in Studio—its subfile 6179s01 is invisible and only the quad of the tup surface is rendered. (Interestingly, the one patterned version of the part does load correctly.) Can anyone reproduce?

  Possible bug when selecting/rotating?
Posted by: N. W. Perry - 2020-03-17, 15:12 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (4)

EDIT: Definitely an issue on my end, and not a bug at all. I don't want to cast any undue criticism on this very fine program!  Wink

I'm having a little trouble with the interface, and I'm guessing it's because I'm running LDCad on MacOS under Wine, but maybe it's a known bug, or perhaps my own error. There are two symptoms that appear to be related:

  • Selecting: Normally, [left-]clicking a part will select it, or if it's already selected, will deselect it. Also, if a part is selected, clicking a different part will select that part while deselecting the first part. But quite often, these behaviors will stop working, and the only way I can proceed is to "force" deselect everything by pressing ESC—sometimes more than once, and even if nothing is currently selected. This doesn't happen every time, and seems to occur more often in certain models than in others.
  • Rotating: Normally, dragging the empty part of the edit window will rotate the camera. But again, sometimes this stops working and I have to hit ESC to proceed (when this happens, dragging the edit window will simply scroll/pan the view). Often, it will still be possible to rotate the camera by dragging the edit compass, but other times, neither the compass nor the window works; and again, sometimes it's necessary to hit ESC multiple times.
I'm trying to figure out if there's any predictable cause, but in the meantime, is there a known reason that things might get "stuck", and why releasing them by pressing ESC seems to work? (One thing that might be relevant is that, since I don't have an INSERT key, I've set up my own hotkey for that purpose. I use command+enter, which LDCad calls alt+enter. The problem does seem to occur when I use this hotkey a lot, but that might be a coincidence because any editing session involves a lot of inserting.)

Any ideas? Anyone else have a similar issue?

UPDATE: It happened just now, where one part was stuck selected. Clicking in the edit window didn't do anything, but clicking other parts in the source window had an effect as if I'd shift-clicked (adding the new part and all parts in between to the selection). So it's as if LDCad thinks the shift key is pressed when it isn't (which would also explain the panning instead of rotating).

  Substituting a TEXMAP?
Posted by: Willy Tschager - 2020-03-16, 14:44 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (3)

Hi,

I just authored a sticker for the 364 - Harbour Scene:

   

which has been split off into subparts for reuse in other parts. The first candidate would be:

   

https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.c...03829a.dat

Which uses a TEXMAP while mine is made of prims for primitive substitution in a viewer. Question is: Shall I rework 003829a substituting the TEXMAP with the subfiles from 004488a?

Today I wanted to update the LDInspector wiki page, but after login I get "Internal error" and "Fatal exception of type "Error"".

Did I something wrong? Sad

  Duplo Engine Hood
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2020-03-14, 0:35 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - No Replies

While working on snapping data I noticed the duplo engine hood top (u9507)  pin won't fit 6409.

One of them might be using the wrong radius?

  Small childhood sets of mid/end 1980s
Posted by: Stefan Frenz - 2020-03-13, 16:00 - Forum: Official Models - Replies (2)

There are only a few small sets I played with in my childhood that are not already in the OMR. In this thread I like to share those small sets - at the moment 1972, 6235, 6245, 6805.

1972: Go Kart of 1985
6235: Buried Treasure of 1989
6245: Harbor Sentry of 1989
6805: Astro Dasher of 1985

All files are done with LDCad 1.6c (Linux64). They should be OMR compliant and are without known issue.

Posted by: Johann Eisner - 2020-03-13, 12:03 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - Replies (3)

Hi
Part 52031 have following description:
Slope Brick 45 4 x 6 x 0.667 Double Curved

and part 45677
Wedge 4 x 4 x 0.667 Curved

In my opinion, both should have Wedge as description.
