Hi all,

Also see: https://forums.ldraw.org/thread-27498.html

Again I am finding it difficult to understand why, in LDCad, I can find 30565 Plate 4x4 Corner Round in the Plain Plates partbin.
IMHO this is modified plate?
And then, 30357 is called 3x3 Plate with 2x2 Corner Round and is found in the Plates Modified bin.

This also goes for:
- 68568 Plate  3 x  3 with  2 x  2 Corner Round and  2 x  2 with  1 x  1 Corner Round Cutout
- 80015 Plate  5 x  5 with  4 x  4 Corner Round and  4 x  4 with  3 x  3 Corner Round Cutout
both in modified plates
And then we find 79491 Plate  2 x  2 Corner Round in the Plain Plates bin. Though IMHO this too is a modified plate.

Another example is
- 77850 Plate  1 x  3 Round Ends and  3 Open Studs found in Plain Plates
- 35480 Plate  1 x  2 with Round Ends and 2 Open Studs is found in Modified

I think at least these two should be either both plain or both modified.
And I think we need to rename 77850 to Plate  1 x  3 with Round Ends and  3 Open Studs so it too will end up in the modified plates bin.
And 30565 should be Plate 4x4 with Corner Round

Can we find more consistency in naming and describing parts?
Since I am modelling very often in LDCad and sometimes find it illogical where to find certain parts, I come across this very often.

I know I can request fasttracking an edit to parts. Would this be the way to this if I come across inconsistancy?
Adding more keywords can help too.

Thanks for reading.
