(*) Maybe a clever software (hint, hint, LDCad...) could receive a new meta in its shadow library, changing default initial orientation and origin of those parts. I think this matters mainly for technic parts, but I agree that having default orientation of pins ready to be plugged in Technic bricks, beam holes in the same direction as those of Technic bricks, bushes and gears aligned with axles and tow ball pins origin in the middle of ball... yes, that would make life MUCH easier
Thanks Philoo. And there I thought I was being dumb.
I thought there would be as there is (and again the name/place eludes me) a file that sets default orientation for PLI parts, so I had hoped something equally simple was available here. Let's hope something like this can one day be implemented in e.g LDCad 2.0
