Hello all,
I have what I hope to be a simple question... I'm using LPub to make instructions for a large 10k piece model. I'm well aware of the ROTSTEP command, which was critical in ensuring the right perspective at all times.
The problem is that I would like to add a completely blank step showing just the rotation action, so the reader can see the new perspective *before* adding the parts for the next step. I tried the following seemingly obvious schema, but the extra "step" is being discarded. - I can only assume that LPub has logic to ignore "Step" commands where no parts were added.
Help appreciated!
Sincerely,
---tom
