For Beginners: LDCad 1.5 Part Bins for EV3 Education 45544-1, Part 5 of 6
Finally, the contents of one of the six desired part bins, this one "tub.pbg." For this file, the "picture=" line has no entry. Instead, LDCad 1.5 provides the "mascot=" feature, which allows you to specify one of the <items> and LDCad will use that item's LDraw ".dat" file to generate the image chosen to represent all the items. "95652.dat" is the LDraw file for the ultrasonic sensor.
In this same manner, the six ".pbg" files allow the one hundred types of LEGO pieces in EV3-Edu to be subdivided by type; in this bin you only have to sort through eighteen pieces to find what you are looking for, and it is already in the correct color.
