  Parts request: Printed pieces for set 76914
Posted by: Kuipers - 2024-06-16, 13:43 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (5)

Set 76914 Ferrari 812 Competizione contains several printed pieces:
80177 and 80178 Slope Curved 3 x 2
65633 Windscreen 6 x 6 x 1 1/3
3005 Brick 1x1
24246 Tile 1 x 1 Half Circle
Printed pieces make a big difference in how a model looks, especially in this case the sloped curves and windscreen, while the other parts make the finishing touches. If anyone is willing to perhaps create (some of) these that would be much appreciated!

Photo LPUB3D cannot export html part list
Posted by: linghank - 2024-06-14, 8:28 - Forum: Help - No Replies

STEP 1、When I try to export an HTML part list, lpub3d pops up a warning window saying that there is no relevant ***_snapshot.ldr in the lpub3d\tmp folder
STEP 2、When I click the OK button in the pop-up window, the program crashes.
STEP 3、I tried to rename a ***_snapshot.ldr file to the lpub3d\tmp folder, and then clicked Generate HTML Part List again, and the program crashed directly

  [LDPE] 1.8.79 Released (inline without comments / no cancel with mouse / bugfixes)
Posted by: Nils Schmidt - 2024-06-10, 20:53 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (3)

Hey,

this version fulfils a few wishes from Fredrik. It also fixes some small bugs and runs again on Intel Macs.
And a right click will not cancel adding a line/triangle/quad by default anymore (you can customise this behaviour).

[Image: attachment.php?aid=12753]

As always, you can download LDPE from this page:

http://nilsschmidt1337.github.io/ldparteditor/

Changelog:

(3 new features and 3 bug fixes)

With this release you will be able to...

  • ...inline a selection without any comments (ctrl+click on inline button).
  • ...decide if the right mouse click cancels the action to add a line/triangle/quad or not. Cancel is not the default anymore! ("Tools..."->"Options...").
  • ...have a shortcut which adds an empty subfile reference line, mirrored on X (Ctrl-Shift-R).

The following critical issue are fixed:

  1. Join Selection (Text Editor) had problems when INVERTNEXT was on top of the selection.
  2. Text line selection in the text editor (by clicking on the line numbers) resulted in wrong inlining when the next line was a reference (type 1).
  3. It was not possible to import empty STL files without an error ("File not found" was displayed).

The program was tested intensively with "real world" files.
However, something can go wrong in about 140.000 lines of code.

Installation on Windows:

  1. Download and extract LDPartEditor_win32_x64.zip
  2. Run LDPartEditor-1.8.79.msi
  3. Start LDPartEditor from the start menu
Installation on Linux:

  1. Download and extract LDPartEditor_linux_x64.zip
  2. Install ldparteditor_1.8.79-1_amd64.deb
  3. Start LDPartEditor from the menu or via launcher
Installation on Mac OS X:

  1. Download and extract LDPartEditor_mac_x64.zip
  2. Mount LDPartEditor-1.8.79.dmg
  3. Drag LDPartEditor.app to the Applications folder
  4. Copy ldparteditor.sh to your home folder
        4a. Open a Terminal.app and run ./ldparteditor.sh
        4b. Or open a Terminal.app and run /Applications/LDPartEditor.app/Contents/MacOS/LDPartEditor

I listen carefully to your requests and possible complaints. Please leave me a message, with your thoughts and wishes to further improve the software.

LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

System Requirements:

Minimum System Requirements:
  • OpenGL 2.1 compatible Graphics Card
  • Operating System (64-bit): Windows [7 or newer], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]
  • CPU: Multicore-Processor e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon II (>2.0Ghz)
  • RAM: 4GB
  • Video-Memory: 1 GB
  • Free Disk Space: 150 MB
Recommended Requirements:
  • Operating System (64bit): Windows 7,8,10,11, Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]
  • OpenGL 3.3 compatible Graphics Card
  • CPU: Multicore-Processor with 4 cores (or more)
  • RAM: >4 GB
  • Video-Memory: >1 GB
  • Free Disk Space: 500 MB
  • For a faster start, LDPartEditor and the LDraw™ library should be installed on an SSD.

  Weekly parts - default sorting
Posted by: Paweł Turalski - 2024-06-10, 10:19 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (2)

Hello guys, I would like to suggest to fix the sorting on parts tracker. Previously I saw the newest parts first and it was intuitive, normal. But since few months I see the parts from 2008 when I open the website (any device), every time I have to change the sorting to see the new parts. Yes I use my phone to look at the parts and plan to download them on pc later. But when I use computer browser it looks the same, the oldest parts are first. This is the first thing I see when I open the parts tracker:
   
Don't get me wrong, but is it a bug? I mean, personally I don't see any logical reason to see the oldest parts first which probably I already have

  Call for bug reports on LDCad 1.7 Beta 1
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2024-06-08, 18:40 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (3)

I've picked up work on LDCad again these last few weeks preparing for 1.7 Beta 2.

So if anyone has had some issues or discovered any bugs, please report them here so I can fix them in this new version.


Current release notes:

Code:
--==1.7 Beta 2 (??-??-2024)==--
Fixed:
- [FileIO] Files containing numbers with a ridiculous number of decimal digits will no longer cause weird rounding errors. Only the first 20 digits will be used and internally rounded to 19 digits.
- [Config] Added missing glTF folder to setup.sh
- [Config] Editing grid settings will no longer get lost when upgrading from a very old version. It will now reset to the default when detected.
- [GUI] Added (experimental) 'outside monitor' protection to the main window position and size restore upon start.
- [Shadow] The shadow cleaner function in the Linux version no longer falsely complains about orphaned shadow files.
- [Shadow] Regenerating the CONTRIBUTIONS.md file will now correctly merge information from multiple libraries if they share the same shadow.
- [PartBin] The part bin filter will no longer limit results to library items when searching on keyword content.
- [Editing] The rotation stepping enabled/disabled option is no longer ignored in 2D editing move.
- [Editing] Paste a position + rotation value using the property editor will no longer crash the application if only a position is on the clipboard.


Improved/Changed:
- [Config] Improved handling of unknown values.
- [Config] Added numpad variants to hotkey selection.
- [OpenGL] Removed the 'reuse front buffer' option as it doesn't work on modern hardware / OS's and instead ends up causing problems and/or confusion. During upgrade the option will default to FBO. If FBO turns out to be unavailable or fails to initialize it will revert to 'normal' mode.
- [Shadow] Unofficial part content is now allowed in the official shadow library. The shadow cleaner will help keep an eye on them once the linked part becomes official.


Added:
- [Config] Libraries can now be given an (optional) name for use in pbg filters.
- [PartBin] Favorite parts can now be added including the current working color.
- [PartBin] Added new pbg filter rule kind, "libName", for use with the new library name.
- [PartBin] Added a patterned plates group to the sorted tree.
- [PartBin] It is now possible to filter on color using the special '@' character. If given it will always act as: 'color AND (other entered text)'. Just like the '!' character this is only available when the filter is set to use AND or OR comparison method.
- [Editing] Added a "open current subfile location" option to the session menu.
- [Editing] Added alternative panning and rotation middle mouse button orientated interaction modes.

Still planned:

- Some (minor) additional shadow editing tools.
- Some minor scripting extensions.
- Add support for the new AVATAR meta.
- Add support for the new LDraw_org qualifiers.
- Rotation step 'Favourites'.
