| Sticker shortcut standard |
|

Our current rules on sticker shortcuts are:
Quote:- The shortcut may not include more than one part, although that part may be a shortcut part.
- The shortcut may not be a flat sticker on the flat surface of the part unless that surface is not parallel with one of the 3 cardinal planes (X,Y,Z). Existing sticker shortcuts that do not conform to this rule can remain in the Official Library and not be made obsolete.
- The sticker(s) must entirely fit on the part, with no portions of the sticker(s) extending beyond the boundaries of the part.
- The sticker(s) must be applied in the same location(s) as shown in the instructions for the official LEGO model from which the sticker(s) originate(s).
Note: The second and third items have been superseded and will be removed.
This doesn't encapsulate the standard practices with sticker shortcuts. The current practice is as follows:
- The part and the sticker should be color 16
- If the part is an assembly of a color 16 part and a transparent part and the sticker is placed on the transparent area:
- For a solid color sticker, the color will be the color of the sticker back (usually white)
- For a transparent sticker, the color will be Trans_Sticker

| LDraw.org 2024-04 Parts Update Now Available |

The 2024-04 LDraw Parts Update has been released. This update adds 568 new files to the core library, including 357 new parts and 25 new primitives.
Thanks are due to all the part authors who created or corrected parts for this release. The small, but dedicated, band of reviewers also play an important role in keeping files moving through the Parts Tracker and deserve just as much credit. This update wouldn't have been possible without their dedication and attention to detail.
You can preview the new parts in 2024-04 here, and download the zip-file update or Windows install package here.
Thank you to all the testers and parts authors who continue feedback for the new PT software. This project would not be what it is without your help.

After the release this Monday (5/27) I'm going pause new feature addition to the PT to embark on some housekeeping. Specifically:
- Update the server to the latest version of our Linux distro
- With that, write scripts to automate this process.
- Do a complete code review and streamline/refactor files
Additionally:
- Update and reformat the Official Library Spec and Number Spec.
This will probably take the better part of a month and may involve some extended outages.
Bug fixes will continue to be addressed as they occur.

| Numbering of complete minifig upper part |
|

Hello,
I have seen two complete minifig upper parts on the Parts Tracker.
They are the parts 76382pdg1 and 76382pdg7.
I would add c01 to the numbering, as it is possible that there may be the same part with hands in a different color at some point. The character sequence dg1, dg7 stands for the printing and c01 stands for the design.
As an example, see also on Bricklink the parts 973px61c01 and 973px61c02. These parts are identical except for the color of the arms.
Greetings
Manfred

| The .io file system thumbnail |
|

Stud.io's native *.io file already contains thumbnail picture of the model in editor, yet it does not show/use it as a thumbnail in Windows Explorer, but instead it uses Studio default icon for all the model files.
This results in that when we have many mocs in a folder, we can only distinguish them by name.
So,can someone develop a plugin to achieve this functionality?

| Request for Comments: New Type Qualifiers |

I'd like to add 2 new type qualifiers to the !LDRAW_ORG meta:
Pattern and Assembly
- Since the pCC©/pNNNN suffix is used for both dual mold and printed parts, Pattern will be used to denote a printed part. There might also be a use for a dual mold qualifier.
- Assembly with be used to denote a shortcut that LEGO normally produces and distributes as one unit. Think torso with hands and arms, the 1x1 lever, or electric motors. This will not apply to further shortcuts that combine more parts, like the electric motor and cable shortcuts.
