Is this a LPub bug? - Zhengrong Zang - 2014-02-20

I am using LPub to create instructions as attachments, can you tell me why?

Weird! maybe try to clear assemblies cache?
can you share source code?

Maybe I found why, I changed view to back not 3D at last step, this created that picture.
Now it is after I change back to 3D view.

I am sorry that I still have the problems, though I thought I found whySad
Can you check my mpd file and tell me why?

Not sure, but indeed it looks like a bug in "Add assembled image in parent page" feature: sub-sub models are not properly positioned. I don't use this feature, I prefer to use buffer exchange to show subassembly and arrows above model, then put it in place. It's more time consuming to do, but you have better control and it's more in-line with LEGO instructions style.

I felt buffer exchange is too difficult, is there any more easier guide for that?
I read this article http://www.holly-wood.it/mlcad/advanced2-en.html

I agree this is not so easy... flexible, but not easy Wink
