1.8.56 Beta Released (lines+surface intersections/ shortkeys/ empty subfile warnings) - Nils Schmidt - 2022-05-21 Hey, this release adds just a handful of improvements! ![]() As always, you can download LDPE from this page: http://nilsschmidt1337.github.io/ldparteditor/ Changelog: (5 new features) With this release you will be able to...
The program was tested intensively with "real world" files. However, it is still a beta version and something can go wrong in about 140.000 lines of code. Installation on Windows:
I listen carefully to your requests and possible complaints. Please leave me a message, with your thoughts and wishes to further improve the software. LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

Thanks, Nils!I got a bit deeper and found them. Main page links to a beta folder https://github.com/nilsschmidt1337/ldparteditor/releases/download/v1.8.56-beta/LDPartEditor_win32_x64.zip bur they are in a non-beta one, such as https://github.com/nilsschmidt1337/ldparteditor/releases/download/v1.8.56/LDPartEditor_win32_x64.zip RE: 1.8.56 Beta Released (lines+surface intersections/ shortkeys/ empty subfile warnings) - Max Murtazin - 2022-05-21 Great job! Want to request few features I can see be useful: Controllable outline thickness Smooth shading Checking for t-junctions on a selection RE: 1.8.56 Beta Released (lines+surface intersections/ shortkeys/ empty subfile warnings) - Nils Schmidt - 2022-05-23 (2022-05-21, 13:21)Max Murtazin Wrote: Great job! Controllable outline thickness is already available. On the UI it looks like this: Smooth shading is already implemented, but works only on the OpenGL 3.3 renderer (click Tools... -> Use OpenGL 3.3, restart LDPE). Then right-click on the 3D view, click "View Actions -> Smooth Shading".

Not compatible with my graphics card. Looks terrible. ![]() RE: 1.8.56 Beta Released (lines+surface intersections/ shortkeys/ empty subfile warnings) - Max Murtazin - 2022-05-23 (2022-05-23, 20:18)Nils Schmidt Wrote: Controllable outline thickness is already available.

On the UI it looks like this: Works fine for small parts. When you've got a large baseplate and zoom out to see the whole thing the buttons become useless 'cos even the thickest line is barely notable. w.

Is there a way to check whether this and other options are enabled before launching the program? (In case you've forgotten…) |
