Unable to edit main model LDCad with MLCad arrow present? - Jaco van der Molen - 2016-11-09
Hi Roland,
Having a model with instructions that use MLCad arrows, prevents me from editing that model in LDCad?
It does load, slow, shows a big green + , then loads the model showing blue plus-signs on the studs and the anti-studs are shown in red.
Removing the MLCad arrow and loading the file again is fine.
Can this be fixed?
Jaco

This probably comes from arrow made from triangle and quads beeing included in main file - in this case LDCad treats the whole model as a part. Make the arrow a submodel and it should work.

Ah, ok. Right, thanks.
I usually make it an MLCad part, but I guess a submodel is better.
