I have a minor LDCad annoyance that would be cool if it were addressed in 1.6d or later. When you click the "Add submodel" button (or the menu entry) and then subsequently change your mind and click "Cancel" on the ensuring dialog, a submodel is still created with the default name. This normally wouldn't be a huge issue (and, to be honest, it isn't now) but the "Add Submodel" button is right next to and looks very similar to the "Open main submodel" button. Sometime I accidentally click the wrong button and it would be nice if the cancel button actually cancelled the creation of a new submodel.

Hi,
Lego Dragon Wing 9 x 6 it's not present in Studio software. It's found in 76119 Batmobile set. Would be nice to have it for designing batmobiles.

PRESS RELEASE

NORTHGO BUILDS ANOTHER NORTHGO COLLEGE

The Northgo College (Noordwijk, the Netherlands) is building a duplicate of the school building ... from LEGO.
14 pupils are currently busy with more than 14,000 bricks with which they build windows, doors, pieces of wall and columns and then build them from the foundation, assemble them and incorporate them layer by layer in the building.
If it all works out, there will be an exact copy of the school building in about 6 to 8 weeks.
During the open day of the Northgo College on January 25, 2020, visitors can watch the construction live.

LEGO expert
Jaco van der Molen is the initiator of building the school with LEGO bricks. In daily life, he is a scheduler, application manager and desk clerk. In his spare time, he is a huge enthusiastic LEGO fan. He has experience in building "well-known" buildings because, in addition to a replica of his own house, he also designed and built a copy of the Golden Tulip hotel in Noordwijk and made a life-size statue of Sinterklaas. The design and digital construction of the school building took about 3 years.

LEGO League and Digital Design
It is known that LEGO is not just a simple building block. During the last Sinterklaas, many fancy building sets will have been unpacked. But there is much more. The First LEGO League® (FLL), for example, challenges young people aged 9 to 14 to think of themselves as real scientists and technicians. The Northgo College has an active FLL team consisting of 10 substitute students, also supervised by Jaco, who invest a few hours extra time each week and have recently played their first FLL challenge. LEGO League prepares the students for robotics, a plus subject in the superstructure.
Another educational example is Digital Design. Digital building with Lego blocks is possibly even more fun and challenging than real building. The students of 4 mavo of the Northgo College are currently working on a project in the Technology and Application course using LDCad, a special digital LEGO program, with which they make prototypes of their design.

...as the original thread spans now over seven years, I dare to open a new one. The old one is also taking quite some time to load...

So here I go:

New Train Parts:

- 38340 Wheel with Pin -> 26.12.: on the PT: https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.c.../38340.dat
- 38339 Wheel Holder -> 26.12.: on the PT: https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.c.../38339.dat

- Improvement of the old wheels (they are flat on the back not conical)

Hi there,

I'd like to contribute the six models 40190-40195 "Shell Ferrari series" of 2014:
40190 red Ferrari F138
40191 red Ferrari F12 Berlinetta
40192 blue Ferrari 250 GTO
40193 yellow Ferrari 512 D
40194 Finish line and Podium
40195 Shell Station

Unfortunately, there are some prints that I could not find / do not exist so far, and all stickers are missing. For easier access, I will upload each file in a separate post below this thread, and indicate missing prints/stickers as appropriate. Some parts have different Rebrickable/Bricklink vs. LDraw numbers - thank you Philippe for your hint how to find the correct parts.

As always: any suggestion is highly welcome.

Regards
Stefan

I've encountered an issue which is beyond my (admittedly fairly limited) understanding and would be grateful for any advice.

The model I'm working on instructions fine up 'til (and including) the first sub model. In the step following, when the sub model is introduced to the main model, the bottom of the assembly is cut off in that and every following step, as if some constraint has been applied.

   

   

I've done plenty of instructions with sub models and this has never happened before. Is there a way of changing the size of the box highlighted in the second picture? I've played with page sizes and margins, the only thing that worked is scaling down the assembly to fit in that box, but that quickly leaves everything impossibly small!

Any ideas?

I noticed something's up with 6135.dat—it should fit all the way onto a Technic axle pin (see for example set 8880), but the axle hole isn't deep enough—only 16 LDU, but should be a full stud.

   

Unfortunately I don't have this part in real life, so I'm not sure how it would have to be adjusted, but it's clearly not as simple as just extending the axle hole.

Will there be a new version of LDraw, concerning in running in Windows 10, 64 bit mode?  If so, when will that be, just asking though? I'm using Windows 10, 64 bit mode.

I have LPub3D version 2.3.13 installed on my MAC and keep getting the following errors on startup saying LPub can not find certain files, and LDview fails to render images once loaded. How can I replace these missing files? Any help would be appreciated
