Hey,

Here is the fresh LPC 1.3.9 !


Please uninstall older versions of this software before installing a new version.
Your configuration won't be deleted if you have already version greater than 1.3.1 installed on your machine.

Change log:

New features:

• You can use a spline tool for creating spline curves.
  
• You can save your data in a LPC - V1.00 legacy format. This format will be read by all LPC versions, but it does not store all pattern information (e.g. metadata, primitives and groups).
  
• You can switch between the selection of overlapping primitives while CTRL is pressed.
  
• You can zoom with '+' and '-' too.
  
• The zoom textfield shows the zoom dialog with just one click.
  
• The F5/F6 toolboxes are movable.
  
• Overall program stability, compatibility and performance is improved.
  

• The sticker dimensions are not correct.
  
• It is impossible to select a primitive/​group, which is transformed into a straight line.
  

Hi,

all articles belonging to the LDraw.org Official Library Standards section have been transferred to the new CMS.

I would appreciate if someone could browse the articles under:

Home > Documentation > LDraw.org Official Library Standards

and check if there are broken links (internal and external).

Many thx,

Hello all,

I finally finished a version of LDCad 1.1 which is 'beta' worthy imho. So after almost 7 months here's a new (semi) stable version for you to play with. You'll find it at

www.melkert.net/LDCad

Do note, a uninstall of a previous version is highly recommended.

Bigest changes (compared to 1.0, not the alpha's):

• Full support for ortho/2D/flat projection editing.
  
• (unlimited) split edit views.
  
• Beter 'old' OpenGL implementations support (Will even render on 1.1, no more crosses or flickering screen).
  
• Menu/tool bar (i got tired of all the 'where's the menu' comments). It's fully customizable, but do note not all available toobuttons have icons yet.
  
• Rotation center manipulation is now supported.
  
• expert' (manual) rotation, movement and selection center dialogs.
  
• 'Modern windows' friendly installer (setup will install dynamic stuff outside the program files folder). If you don't like this use the archive version or delete the LDCad.cfg file BEFORE you start LDCad for the first time.
  
• A boat load of small stuff (see the changeLog.txt file for all details).
  

again not MY-own-creation, but SOMEONE-ELSE's-own creation (SOEOC):

I think that when a forum post gets edited,
it should be shown as "unread" again to all readers.
Currently, that read/unread status doesn't seem to be affected by an edit.

Looks like LDraw is loosing one of its strongest advantages over LDD...

While testing links in the new LDraw File Format Standards section of the web site, I noticed that every time I click on one of the links in the table of contents, it apparently reloads the page. (It definitely communicates with the site, and that communication introduces an extremely noticable delay). The same thing happens every time I hit the back button immediately after having navigated one of these in-document links.

Doing a little digging, I discovered that this is caused by the main site menu URL for the document being blahblahblah/218.html, while the table of contents links are all blahblahblah/218/#yadayada. If I point my browser directly at blahblahblah/218/, instead of blahblahblah/218.html, the problem goes away. Is there any way to use the blahblahblah/218/ version of the URL as the one from the menu, and make that the official URL, instead of the blahblahblah/218.html one?

Hi again,
another version has just been released and is available from http://sr3dbuilder.altervista.org/

No significant improvement this time, just some fixes, most around the UI.
Here is a list of changes.
Enjoy!
