Hello,

I love this LDCad. But with Windows 10 I always need to reduce screen resolution in order to see the menu text in LDCad.

I am using a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro notebook. Standard and recommend screen resolution: 3200 x 1800.

Is there a trick or a setting, so that LDCad plays nice together with High Resolution Screens (sometimes also called 4K).

Thx,
Manfred

Hi,

I have copied Philo's wiki OMR tutorial to the main site.

Hello All,

I think the last beta was stable enough to allow a definitive 1.5 version.

Therefore this version only includes some minor bug fixes / tweaks.

I did manage to add MSAA anti-alias support though by merging it in from the 1.6 alpha version.

MSAA will only be applied on the LDraw renderings not the gui overlay. I've found out myself this can cause problems on some VGA drivers so make sure you have the latest ones installed. the old edge only aa is also still available but aa will default back to none when upgrading to this version.

I've also managed to add part snapping info for the new 2015-02 library, the car and support category bin groups parts.

The latest LDCad version (like always) can be downloaded from

http://www.melkert.net/LDCad/download

With this release done I'm going to concentrate on 1.6 which will include the following:

• Region selection.
  
• Macro scripting.
  
• More animation scripting.
  
• ROTSTEP support.
  
• Hotkey management / reassignment.
  
• Multi layer groups.
  

• Buffer exchange support
  
• Povray animation export
  
• Blender animation export
  
• Additional things suggested in the 1.6 suggestions thread.
  

Someone on sourceforge.net reported that they are unable to generate pdf output beyone 96 dpi - even with the following settings:

When I choose "Add assembled image to parent page" at the end of a submodel a rotation icon is added to the callout.
Deleting or hiding it does not work.

The code seems to add correct:
0 !LPUB CALLOUT ROTATE_ICON DISPLAY LOCAL FALSE

Hi

I was wondering if there are any patterned versions of these parts?

50995.dat - CLONE TROOPER HELMET 2
11217.dat - MINI FIGURE HELMET NO 14

These parts are both available here:

Thanks

To my surprise, part 64867 isn't available in LDraw (yet).
I'm missing it for one of the mixels.

Anyone willing to make it?

I just wrote this tutorial for the wiki.

For those who use Facebook, I've created a Group there for discussing LDraw related topics. Please join if you would like to participate.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1711364279149819/

The intent is not to compete with these forums, but a lot of people may not know about the forums, or may be more active on Facebook, so it provides another venue to talk about LDraw.

Bill.

Rather than burrying this kind of questions in LDCad new version announcement threads I figured out it might be interesting to create a specific thread...
