As a result of this thread I was thinking about adding a 'related' feature to LDCad at some point.
Biggest problem with such a feature would be the information needed, so if anybody wants to take a go on compiling a list of related parts it would be a great help.
All is needed is simple lines in the form of (using names instead of numbers per example):
wheel10mm.dat tyreA10mm.dat tyreB10mm.dat
or even
leftWing3x8.dat rightWing3x8.dat
I could then convert such a list into a cross referenced internal format, and use it to populate the partbin based on the current selected part.
