[LDPatternCreator] Release 1.7.8 (shortcut for flip / new prims / ungroup) - Nils Schmidt - 2026-02-08
Hey,
with this update I improved a few little things and Willy will be happy about the fact that 'helper lines' can be moved now.
Download and install the latest LDPatternCreator release directly from sourceforge.net.
Any previous version should be uninstalled first. Your program configuration will be preserved.
Change log:
New features:
- "Ungroup" colourises subparts/primitives in their chosen colour.
- It is now always possible to set the spline segment count when adding a spline.
- Helper lines and template lines can be moved.
- Added a shortcut to flip/rotate two selected triangles (Ctrl+F)
- The file's name shows up along the title in the very top bar.
- Added a helping tooltip for the "Triangle Auto-Completion" which explains the use of the CTRL and the cursor keys.
- Added a hint for "freezing the selection" when adding new objects.
- "2-4chrd" is added into the "Add Primitive" list
- "tndis" is added into the "Add Primitive" list.
Fixed Bugs from 1.7.7 and older:
- Missing overflow detection for large coordinates in the vertex window.
As always, I included a short readme.htm in the installation directory.
Cheers & Leg Godt
Nils
