RE: Existing Part Edit Requests - Rene Rechthaler - 2025-12-03

the two 5.5 axles you mentioned are correct...
(the older 32209 has the long end at X=53 and the other one is not rounded)

for the other parts: not all old parts with sharp ends have been reworked yet.

for the snap: maybe it can be added to the shadow library...

Do you have the number on these?

The axles are different.

I've added the shadow info for the new axles to the github repository.

https://github.com/RolandMelkert/LDCadShadowLibrary

Just download the code zip and rename it to offLibShadow.csl or update the ldraw path config to point to the new zip.

Thanks, this improved it a lot.

Some of those 'no snapping' parts are unofficial and do have snapping info in the latest git shadow.

Are you sure your unofficial library is ALSO pointing to the same shadow file?

RE: Existing Part Edit Requests - Roland Melkert - 2025-12-12

Also I can't find some of those numbers, like:

92202.dat
5794.dat

Not even on the part tracker Huh

lib is up to date and ldcad is pointing to it yeah

ill check closely tomorrow

RE: Existing Part Edit Requests - SNIPE - 2026-02-11

part 28974a.dat is missing a tiny detail,

On the real part there is a tiny circle protruding outwards:

This protrusion is not present in LDCAD:

RE: Existing Part Edit Requests - Chris Böhnke - 2026-02-12

That part has seen many revisons by Lego themselves.

Do you know which version your's is from?

At first glance I'd say it's simply a "molding relict" which is typically not rendered in LDraw.

It looks like an "Ejection Mark", meaning it's a stamp left on the part when it is thrown out of the mold (by metal ejection pins) after being cooled down. Those typically have no function (in the final part) and as such are not rendered in LDraw.

EDIT:
Ok, that can't be an Ejection Mark. It still seems to have no direct function... How does it look on a minifig?
Also those holes are more interesting than the protrusion I'd say...
