  lower or Upper case in part description
Posted by: Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-13, 23:21 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (2)

I just found this

Code:
This scheme is described here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_case#Headings_and_publication_titles
as
"Capitalization of all words, except for articles, prepositions, conjunctions, and forms of to be"
or
"Capitalization of all words, except for closed-class words"
(not sure which one of both we're using here exactly).
on the pt http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cg.../88517.dat

I feel that the LSC should also have a cleaning, clearing word on this. Just the native english members should know what we are doing and so we can - and should - fix it in a spec. So there will be no doubt about this question in the future.

  LETGUI 1.7.0.0
Posted by: Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-13, 22:58 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (8)

I just released a new version of LETGUI.

Now with Selector 1.0 included.
Rectifier has been updated to version 1.9.
Also some changes are made for the call of windz (still version 0.1.2.0). Hopefully it now works on all windows versions.

Please leave your comments for this version in this thread. Thanks.

  Another WebGL Renderer
Posted by: Daniel B - 2013-01-13, 0:49 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (4)

So i'm also having a go at a WebGL LDraw editor.
Which you can try out here www.mr-bucket.co.uk/TestWebGL.aspx

I was going to update the LDraw editor i last worked on way back in 2004 www.mr-bucket.co.uk/GLIDE/ The old discussion on GLIDE can be found here if you are curious.

Then i discovered WebGL. I figure the best way to make a multi-platform app these days is to make a web app.

Mine is a bit behind the renderer made by Nicola but im putting my rainy weekends into it.

Any feedback please let me know on the LDraw forums.

  LETGUI ?
Posted by: Magnus Forsberg - 2013-01-12, 13:42 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (24)

Mike,
Could we also have an updrade of LETGUI?

Philo have added Selector and improved Rectifier.

I can't run windz through LETGUI, for some reason.
It works fine when I run it separatly.

The "output" text entry box is often blocked by the "settings box".

  Really Big Colour Code: 117313504
Posted by: Eric Himbeault - 2013-01-11, 16:32 - Forum: Help - Replies (20)

I am working on an import feature for LDraw models, and when I tested it on the Front End Loader model that comes with the LDraw download (model 8464.mpd), I encountered a line with a very large colour code:

Code:
0 FILE 8464.ldr
0 Front End Loader
0 Version: 1.0a (20071123)
(...)
1 117313504 -125 -208 -400 0 0 1 0 1 0 -1 0 0 3941.DAT

In LDraw, the part looks like this:
[Image: eo0J5.png]

I thought it might be a blended colour, like the filespec would suggest, but the colour code is still too large for that. What is this colour, and how do I interpret it?
