Hi all,

When I installed LDView I configured it to generate the thumbnails in Windows Explorer.
Lately when opening folders with LDraw files Explorer crashes almost every time.
How do I stop LDView from generating thumbnails?
This is getting very annoying (sorry about that Travis ;-)

I think that part 3044a should be renamed from "Slope Brick 45 2 x 1 Double with Hollow Bottom" to "Slope Brick 45  2 x  1 Double without Centre Stud".

This would make it be consistent with parts 3040a, 3065, 3066, 772, etc.

The 2018-01 LDraw Parts Update has been now been released. This adds 267 new files to the core library, including 171 new parts and 20 new primitives. This update also fixes some minor problems with the 2017-01 update issued in December 2017, as reported here, here and here.

Thanks are of course due to all the part authors who created or corrected parts for this release, and to the reviewers who also play an important role in keeping files moving through the Parts Tracker.

You can preview the new parts in 2018-01 here, download the zip-file update or Windows install package here. Alternatively you can use the LDView menu option File | Check for Library Updates... to install the update.

LDView 4.3 is now available. Since the last release, LDView has moved to GitHub, and has a new home page.

You can download this release from the LDView Downloads Page.
The Change History is here.

LDView finally supports exporting to POV (and 3DS and STL) from the command line. This version also ignores the UTF-8 BOM in the LDConfig.ldr file in the 2017-01 LDraw library release that is causing errors every time you load a file in LDView 4.2. And it supports textures on transparent parts.

Unfortunately, it still doesn't support textures in POV exports, nor does it support cylindrical or spherical projection for textures.
