Tile  2 x  2 Round with Pizza Pattern


This part calls for color 354, but there is not such color in ldconfig.ldr. Does the part need to be fixed?

[edit]

Never mind. I see it in the parts tracker already. What is the closest official color to dithered color #354?

Since we had only 5 confirmed nominees, no election is necessary

Therefore, the 2018/2019 LDraw.org Steering Committee [1] is:


Chris Dee
Philippe Hurbain
Roland Melkert
Max Martin Richter
Willy Tschager



[1] Try not to confuse the LDraw.org Steering Committee (SteerCo) with the LDraw.org Standards Board (LSB). The Steering Committee sets the course for the LDraw Organization while the Standards Board deals with the LDraw File Format.

Congratulations to the reconfirmed and new members!

I had a selection of 2x2 and 2x4 printed tiles made, and want to use them in my building instructions.  The images are in both PNG (bitmap) and AI (vector) formats.  

What is the easiest way to make these into custom printed parts for use in MLCad /LDraw, etc?  I would like to believe that there is an app that makes this trivial.

thanks,

Right now on the forums we are allowing external linking to non-secure content. With the recent change in security policy for most of the major browsers, I will be switching this functionality off. This means that any links to external images that are not served via a secure (HTTPS) method will appear as a broken link. Eventually this will apply to the rest ofthe websites in the LDraw ecosystem.

Philo's question on naming a strange shaped part reminded me on one open question.

These nexo Knight parts have an area that is notable rough. With a relief that is much more visible than e.g. Slopes (may be a bad comparison)
However within the LDD files, those details. are not there.

I did one part with those details, 27257 that I have attached here. What do you think, should this be modeled or not?

My approach was to have one of the bumps as a submodel (hexagonal pyramid with condlines), the coloured areas are inlined as they intersect.

   
   

Hi
Is there anywhere an LDCad tutorial in german aviable?
Is it planned to translate the program in German?
I know english is a world wide language, but my mother tongue is german and so it's for my easier.

Following up on the discussion on MLCad 3.50 which led to discussing snap meta in LDCad here is something I found.

I see that part 85984 (better known as cheese slope 1x2) misses snap meta at underside so it won't snap at a 90 degree angle on say a 1x2 brick with studs on side.
I cannot remember having problems with that part, but now it does not snap.
I see part 85985 is not made with the subpart without top face that is used for patterned versions of this slope.
The the patterned variants of 85985 use 85985s01 which has the snap meta.
Shouldn't part 85984 be fixed and make use of the 85985s01 too?
