Official Library File Format Restictions

[Gerald Lasser]

I agree with Willy, just wanted to add to the numbering scheme, that we should add also the patterned part references.

Edit:

Section Duplicates:


Identical lines of type 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are not permitted.

The order of end points is not considered when checking for identical lines of line types 2 and 5.

The ordering of vertex points for triangles and quads is not considered when checking for identical polygons (line types 3 and 4).

Control points are not considered when checking for identical conditional lines, line type 5

Section Overlapping:
Overlapping Cond-Lines are not permitted, however this is sometimes unavoidable when e.g. two cylinder sections are joined as the condlines are present in the sub-files.
IMHO this also speak against complementary cond-lines that we need.

Section Colors:
This part along with the two sub-items shall be removed as it is outdated:
"There are two cases where use of colour 16 for lines is acceptable:"
Using Lines (type 2) to simulate patterns or grip lines shall not be allowed.

Assemblies:
I think we shall add two samples

May be also add samples here for dual-molded parts or marbled injections?

Unknown Parts:
Shall this still refer to Peeron.com?
