I just updated the MLCad.ini file accordingly to the latest LDraw.org parts update 2018-01. The .ini file defines (among other things) the parts available in MLCad's, LEOCad's and Bricksmith's minifigure generator.

Bye, w.

for a future release, could you add the missing line

Code:

31 - ELECTRIC_CABLE                       = SYNTH BEGIN ELECTRIC_CABLE 375

in the [LSYNTH] section, please?

That will enable MLCad to create electric cables.

This could/should be done already now, independently from:

The current element for that cable inside lsynth.mpd is already existing, but wrong/broken:
the cables get generated too thick.
Its section needs to be corrected to

Code:

0 FILE ELECTRIC_CABLE.ldr
0 ELECTRIC_CABLE SYNTHESIS DEFINITION
0 Name: ELECTRIC_CABLE.ldr
0 Author: Steffen [Steffen]
0 Unofficial Model

I'm seeking contact to Kevin to get this corrected in LSYNTH.
Could you maybe also update your

with this?

So I'll see if I can manage to move it to github and incorporate the change.  Any tips on how to migrate a sourceforge project to github and retain the source history would be appreciated.  My github web skills are currently limited to a single picture embedded in the readme markdown, although that may actually suffice for lsynth.
