LPub3D 2.1

[Balázs]

Hello everyone  ,

I am new here . Sorry if I post to the wrong place, but I have some question about LPub3D.

1/ I am using LDCad to create assemblies in .lpd file format. In LPub I can see all my sub assemblies in the drop-down menu, but some of them did not appearing in the pages. I can see its content in file editor window and steps, but no page, like it is not "visible" or hidden. 
I tried to remove all LPub formatting, manually delete all LPub lines in main assembly .ldr file.

2/ how can I change the order of the sub assemblies in the drop-down menu?

3/ how can I add the complete subassembly in the 1st subassembly instruction page?

Is there any good article/tutorial for commands?

Sorry for my "noob" questions , tried the search function but did not found answers.

Cheers,

Balázs

Hi Balazs,
I am not quite sure what you mean exactly but I will try to answer.

1. I think you mean either mpd or ldr format. If you don't see submodels (subassemblies) on the page, you did not use them properly in your model. Please post your LDraw model file or pb me to let me check
2. I think the order is the order the files are in the LDraw file. So to change the order, change the order of the submodels in the file.
3. It is not wise to start a model with a submodel.

I have a nice tutorial here:
https://sites.google.com/site/workingwithlpub/
Just follow the LPub 4 pages (which is generaly the same als LPub3D)

A list of metacommands are here:

Hope this helps a bit.

Hi Jaco,

thanks for the reply and info .
I am not able to send you a private message, I guess because I am registered today. I did not want to post my modell here. I'll pm you when I am able to.
I write my assembly tree (it is a technic vehicle):

main assembly
-body
-complete chassis
  --frame with motors
  --axle&suspensions
  --wheels

You are right, the order is the same as in the .ldr file.

3/ what I mean is I would like a complete picture of the subassembly on the 1st subassembly instruction page to show what it will be looks like.
