+--- Thread: Bushloc inner edge lines? (/thread-22461.html)
Bushloc inner edge lines? - Mark Kennedy - 2017-10-26
Concerning the inner edge lines on the bushloc primitives, when paired with axleho primitives you end up getting edges where you do not want them. My proposal is to move those edge lines to a new primitive, bushloc5 and also create another primitive bushloc6 where the edge lines math up with the axleho primitives. Is this desirable or should the primitives and the parts that use them be kept the way they are?

Could you please give an example of were it is wrong? Partnumber? New or old part?
If I understand you correct, I see no need to create two new prims.
It is always possible to remove stuff from an old prim, to a new prim, and then use that new prim inside the old prim, adding the moved stuff.

The part 6577, "Technic Bush 1/2 Type 2" is one part where I first noticed it. You can view it at:

Even if you remove the extra edge lines from the part itself there will still be some unwanted edge lines from the primitive.
