  cannot display nested thread view when not logged in
Posted by: Steffen - 2011-11-04, 8:34 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi,

is there a possibility to see a thread with all its posts in nested form for not not-logged-in users?

I know this feature when being logged in,
but I wanted to send a link to a not-logged-in user,
pointing him to a thread, and all I managed to do was sending him a link
to the first post. This made it very difficult for him to catch up / understand
the discussion. Better would have been a link which directly displays a whole thread
in nested form, like it is possible when logged in.

Can we do something on the server to enable this feature also for not logged-in users?

  New LDraw viewer for iOS and Beta test.
Posted by: Ken Drew - 2011-11-04, 2:45 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - No Replies

I am posting for two reasons. One, to let you know about a new LDraw viewer for the iOS platform called ogld. Second, I'm looking for beta testers.

Hardware requirements are an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad running iOS version 4.3 or above.

If you would like to participate in the beta test, please respond in kind to [email protected], and I'll send you details on signing up so that you can have access to the app builds.

Thanks in advance,

Ken Drew

  SR 3D Builder 0.6.0.8
Posted by: Sergio Reano - 2011-11-03, 8:53 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (2)

Hi everybody,

finally, after near six month of nothing, a new release of my application is available.
Among its new features:
- Support for simplified racks mechanism (where a rotation axle is coaxial to gear)
- Support for suspensions (still not the spring)
- Support for Linear Actuators
- The Animation Console that allows you to create a console with your model animations starting points and
animating it in a 'real way'
- Support for reciprocal animation referred to a block to be considered fixed

Don't miss some latest videos:

  Bricksmith 2.5.1: Little Goodies
Posted by: Allen Smith - 2011-11-03, 4:45 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (2)

[Image: icon32.png]

Bricksmith 2.5.1 adds the following features:

  • Show 3D coordinates while hovering mouse
  • Show All command
  • Automatically zooms to fit when opening a file

It also fixes the following bugs:
  • Fixed hang when deleting parts by dragging them out of the window
  • Fixed parsing problems when opening files which do not terminate with 0 FILE
  • Disallow the insertion of circular submodel references
  • Fixed bug in which newly-opened document windows did not automatically become the main window
  • Fixed unexpected viewing angle reset when inserting parts during step display mode
  • Undo works when the Part Browser and Rotate panels are open

Bricksmith 2.5.1 includes a potpourri of bug fixes and small requested features for your enjoyment. It also includes significant under-the-hood changes. Let me know if you find any new bugs.

Bricksmith requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later, and may be download it at <http://bricksmith.sourceforge.net/>. It is still both Intel and PowerPC native. I have not run into any problems on Lion either.

Sincerely,
Allen Smith

  OMR compliant examples
Posted by: Willy Tschager - 2011-11-02, 15:37 - Forum: Official Models - Replies (26)

Hi,

I'd like to include some official sets in the next AIOI release. I therefore created to example files compliant to the Official Model Repository (OMR) Specification Version 1.0.0. I would appreciate if someone could cross check the work I've done. Thx,

w.

PS. Strangely these files won't work in LPub refusing to create BIs for the subfiles.

  Bug? General forum doesn't get red New posts notification
Posted by: Travis Cobbs - 2011-11-01, 21:48 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (4)

As far as I can tell, posts to the "General LDraw.org Discussion" forum don't produce the red "n New Posts" text in the main forum view. I don't think I've ever even looked in that forum due to the fact that I only click on forums that have the new posts message. When I looked today, I saw 9 threads, all of which were in bold (indicating I haven't viewed them).

  Submodel not displayed in Lpub...
Posted by: Fabrice Vion - 2011-11-01, 12:32 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (5)

Hello,

I need help to fix a problem in Lpub.
In my main model, I call two times a submodel. The second time it appears correctly, but the first time it doesn't appear. In fact it appears but only a few steps later after a model rotation.
In the same main model, I call two times another submodel, and it works fine !
I don't understand what happen. I tried to delete the submodel and to re-create it, but the problem is still there.

Is there anybody who have already seen that ? or know what I could have done wrong ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Fabrice

  LSC Nominations not possible as posted
Posted by: Travis Cobbs - 2011-10-31, 17:46 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (1)

There's a post in announcements about LSC nominations, but it contains the following text:

Willy Tschager Wrote:Nominations MUST be posted in direct reply to this post to be counted, and must be online by 12:00 PM GMT November 14.

The language was obviously copied from previous nominations, which were done on LUGNET, but since the Announcements forum doesn't allow replies, it needs to be modified.

Hi folks,

it has passed another year since the last election of the LDraw.org Standards Committee (LSC) were held - and again the SteerCo missed the actual deadlines :-( Nominations are now open. All nominations must be received and recorded by November 14. Elections will be held from November 17 ‘til November 30.

The LDraw.org Standards Committee (LSC) is responsible for maintaining semi-regular internal discussions on pending file format issues, the overall progress of the LDraw file format and new or proposed developments made by different LDraw-based software authors. They adopt new official standards by voting on them, and publish documentation on LDraw.org following such a decision. The LSC has documented and will document past, current and future LDraw File Formats.

To be eligible for LSC membership, per the LSC Final Draft http://www.ldraw.org/Article382.html, you must fulfil at least one of the following:

* Authored at least two LDraw parts subsequently released in an Official LDraw.org Parts Update
* Served as a reviewer on the Parts Tracker through at least 2 official parts updates, and posted at least 5 reviews in at least two updates since their initial participation
* Authored a software program that is compliant with either the LDraw 1.0.0 specs or another spec published by the LSC
* Petition for nomination as an LSC candidate approved by 2 current LSC members
* Petition for nomination as an LSC candidate made to the LSC by at least 5 others eligible to be LSC candidates

People can either self-nominate or nominate someone else. When nominating, please reference the person’s eligibility from the list above. For the LSC there is non need that another member of the community seconds the nomination.

Nominations MUST be posted in direct reply to this post to be counted, and must be online by 12:00 PM GMT November 14.

Voting for the elections will begin November 17, and end November 30. The LSC will officially change over on December 15th, giving time to transition newly elected members into the committee.
