Edger2 help

[Max Martin Richter]

Hej,
Do you have a problem with the output or with the program itself?

Usually I start edger2 from a batch file.

Code:

edger2.exe -l d:\ldraw in_edger.dat out_edger.dat

edger2 and the input/output files are in the same directory (this is also the directory where the batch file is in).

First off all I'm not sure, if it's possible to call a program outside of its directory, like you did here:

Code:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\LETGUI\edger2\Windows\Edger2.exe"

go with the "cd" command into it's directory and call it from there.
Your command line should look like this before calling edger2:

Code:

C:\Program Files (x86)\LETGUI\edger2\Windows>

then you can call edger2.

Next: You should specify your LDraw directory like I did. Use

Code:

-l [LDraw-directory]

In my case [LDraw-directory] is d:\ldraw (it's the main directory of LDraw)

Your input/output calling are correct as far as I can see.

Nevertheless I find your ae, ac and af arguments a bit strange.

Edger2 will process something like this:

Code:

0.00 < angle <  0.10: no Line
0.10 < angle <  0.00: Cond Line
0.00 < angle <  0.00: Cond Line + Edge Line
0.00 < angle        : Edge Line

I would try it with the default values for ae, ac and af. If you want to suppress a specific line type use any of the other options like -dc, -de or something else.


I hope I get it working!
