Here's the Original 315 and two customized versions. Who wants to contribute to a gradual development (with many branches!) of this model through the decades? Instead of Y3, Y4, Y5... you may want to use the licence plate for a though year, like 53, 60, 71 or so... Feel free to continue!

You can edit your ldconfig.ldr file (make a backup!) to limit what colors are available in the color picker palette. Typically I build models than only use a few of the dozens of possible colors, and it's annoying to repeatedly search or scroll through the long list of colors just to get to the few I need. This just simplifies things a bit.



Click the image link for a more detailed description.

Could we get how links appear fixed?..

For example, in this post

http://forums.ldraw.org/showthread.php?t...305#pid305

all the links appear as [www.peeron.com] rather than showing the real destination. That might be a feature but I think it's more of an annoyance.... either show the entire link or let me put words in that are clickable but arbitrary.

some description

Hmm... maybe it's just how the post authors chose to do it?. No, I see.. .if I paste in a bare link it gets displayed as just the base part of the link

that is, http : // forums.ldraw.org /showthread.php?tid=305&pid=305#pid305 (without the spaces) displays as
[forums.ldraw.org]

That seems off to me. But maybe it's me.

Hi,

first of all THANKS for dedicating a session of the forum to my application !! (

I'm the author of SR 3D Builder so, if anyone have question or need support to this program, just ask and I will try to answer...

Sergio

When you click on the red flag next to a topic, the forum takes you to the first new post in the topic since the last time you read that topic. Unfortunately, this doesn't work very well in the threaded view, since the definition of "first new post" is the first one chronologically, instead of the top new post visually. So you end up having to scroll through the whole threaded discussion looking for new posts no matter what you do.

Is there any possibility that "first new post" could be redefined to mean the top new one visually? The two are often the same, and doing it this way would make that link useful. (Note: I had this happen to me a few days ago, and stopped clicking the flag link. It's possible you already fixed this, but I'm assuming not.)

Does anyone have or can create or mocup this part, please?

Here's the first draft. Discuss!!
----
The Offical Model Repository Specification
Version: 0.1 (will turn 1.0.0 upon ratification by the LSC)
Author: Orion Pobursky

Purpose:
--------
The Official Model Repository (OMR) is a database of file in the LDraw File Format describing models that are released as sets by Lego®. For consistency between models and ease of indexing by software, a standard for the file headers, names, and hierarchy in the OMR is needed. This document will outline the extra requirements (in addition to those set forth in the current LDraw File Format specification) for a model to be included in the OMR

Base Requirements:
------------------
All files in the model will conform to the current LDraw File Format

Base File Naming:
-----------------
Each model in the OMR will consist of several files that are packaged together into a single MPD file. For sets that include instructions for multiple models, each model will have its own MPD file. Each MPD for the set will be named in the following manner:

<Set Number>(<Optional Specifier>)-[main or alt<Number>]

Where:
<Set Number>: the number assigned on the container of the set
<Optional Specifier>: Sometimes different set with the same number are released, the specifier will be a single digit number, in parentheses, that is different between different sets, to distinguish these sets from one another.
[main or alt<Number>]: The main model of the instructions (i.e. the model featured on the cover of the container) will have the word "main". For sets that feature more than one model on the front of the container (e.g. the Creator line), the largest or most prominent model is the main model. For alternate models that are detailed in instructions, the word "alt" and a single digit number starting at 1 will be used. For playsets or other sets where there are multiple models that are part of an integral whole, all of the submodels will be contained in the main model MPD.

Example:
Set 4896 - Roaring Roadsters. This creator set has 3 models in the instructions. The roadster is featured prominently on the box. 4896 is the only set with that number. Therefore:
Roadster MPD: 4896-main.mpd
Dragster MPD: 4896-alt1.mpd
etc...

MPD File Structure:
-------------------
The MPD will conform to the MPD File Specification.

The individual files inside the MPD shall be named using the following convention:
<MPD Filename>-1.ldr - First model in main instructions
<MPD Filename>-1a.ldr - First submodel of first model
<MPD Filename>-1aa.ldr - First component of first submodel of first model
<MPD Filename>-1ab.ldr - Second component of first submodel of first model
<MPD Filename>-2.ldr - Second model of main instructions
<MPD Filename>-mf-<Number>.ldr - Minifig, numbered in order of its appearance in the instructions.

To use further levels of submodels, continue adding on letters to the appropriate depth.

The only unofficial parts allowed to be referenced in the model files are those currently residing on the LDraw.org Parts Tracker. No part files shall be contained in the MPD.

File Headers:
-------------
Each individual model file in the MPD must have a standard header format.

Standard Header:
0 FILE <Filename>.ldr
0 <Lego Set Number> <Lego Set Name>
0 Name: <Filename>.ldr
0 Author: <Author Name>
0 LDraw.org Official Model Repository

The main library is, of course, LGEO. It's great but it doesn't have everything.

Some people are actually using their keyboard, and don't want to lift their hands to the mouse more than necessary. As the tab order is now in the 'Start a New Topic', one has to TAB 24 times to get from the Subject to the Message. The expected tab order (at least for me) is Subject, Message, Options, Speed buttons in the edit window.

Edit 1: When later pressing 'Edit' on a post the cursor is placed at the end of the message, as expected.

Edit 2: When pressing 'Reply' the cursor is placed in some indefinite place, and it needs 25 tabs to get to the Message box.

Edit 3: The same when pressing 'Quote'.

It's 23:00, GMT+1, DST and the forum is creeping. If this is how it will be, with only 10 active users, how will it be when there are hundreds?
