[LDCad] Stringstuds

[Wes]

I think Philo is right, you added the bricks to the string submodel.

Problem is parts in such models are handled differently so you can't copy paste them to the main model.

If you don't want to redo the model you could edit the ldraw file

Look for lines like:
0 !LDCAD PATH_CAP [group=start] [color=0] [posOri=60 -24 -40 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1] [part=3005.dat] [extraLen=0mm] [inlineRef=false]

and change them into lines like these
1 0 60 -24 -40 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3005.dat

So you take a '1', followed by the number after color=, and the part after posOri= upto the ] and close the line with the  .dat name.

Do this for all the lines except the ones with [part=572a.dat] and [part=ldcRopeEnd.dat] in them.

As a last step move all the changed lines to the bottom of the first subfile  (above the second 0 FILE .... line)

Hello Roland,

Thanks for your reply! I suppose I could just go back to main and reference the subfile/session and just add those parts back to main manually. I'm not confident enough to edit files (I tripped into subfiles/sessions and didn't realize, lol). I'm afraid of worsening my situation.    Should only take me a few hours . . or 8. 

Again thanks for your time and help.
