Hej,
actually I was looking for another part but I stumbled over an issue with the round 1 x 1 tiles.
All patterned versions are named "Tile Round 1 x 1 [...]", but the unpatterned version is named "Tile 1 x 1 Round".
I think all patterned version of this part should be renamed to "Tile 1 x 1 Round [...]" to match our system (for example with the round 2 x 2 tile).

Guys,

the Getting Started - Mac page is a real mess. Since I don't use an apple case I'm definitely not the first choice to update it. Any MAC users out there who could get us a helping hand?

Could you change the font weight of the forum title in the forum list page to bold.

Right now the "Mark Forum Read" links are visually more prominent and take focus away from the forum links. Thanks!

I'm writing a script to generate SNOT roads but I have encountered a problem. As you can see the bricks in the attached file follow a neat curve. However the rotation of the parts around the z-axis is backwards. How do I fix this in the bricks' rotation matrices? Here's the relevant bit of code in the script I wrote:

Hi I'm working on a spring generator for LDCad, and was wondering how far I should take the details.

I've looked at the existing springs in the library, and noticed they don't have conditional lines in the way I would expect them. They also use static lines around the (very low res) wire edges.

Is this on purpose or pure some performance issue ?

Anyway this is what my current code generates (no lines at all).

I installed MLCad 3.40 a while ago but didn't bother with importing MLCad.grp. How do I do so now? I've copied the file into MLCad's directory but MLCad ignores it as far as I can tell. Thanks.

I thought we expunged all Non-CA parts by now? Thus the Non-CA section in the legal info should be redundant.

EDIT: gee, can we get URL auto-linking? I keep forgetting to put url tags just for this forum...

What tool can I use to update all my models to use the newest parts? (E.g. parts that have been renamed or moved, etc..) Thanks!

I can't use MLCAD since Datsville (the model I am trying to update) has nested MPD files which MLCAD doesn't like.

Today's xkcd was LEGO-centric. Don't forget to hover over the image to read the alt tag (although I susect many people here already knew the relevant tire fact).

If you aren't an xkcd fan, I feel it's important to point out that it is occasionally not safe for work. I'd say 99% of the comics are fine, but a few aren't.
