85984 Slope 31 1 x 2 x 0.667

[Jaco van der Molen]

Following up on the discussion on MLCad 3.50 which led to discussing snap meta in LDCad here is something I found.

I see that part 85984 (better known as cheese slope 1x2) misses snap meta at underside so it won't snap at a 90 degree angle on say a 1x2 brick with studs on side.
I cannot remember having problems with that part, but now it does not snap.
I see part 85985 is not made with the subpart without top face that is used for patterned versions of this slope.
The the patterned variants of 85985 use 85985s01 which has the snap meta.
Shouldn't part 85984 be fixed and make use of the 85985s01 too?

But it does.
It was subfiles and rereleased in the 2016-01 batch of parts. Maybe you have an old version?

I've corrected that part while working on the 17-01 snapping info, mostly thinking it was a recent change as I eyeball all parts in the sorted branch using F11

Info should indeed be in 85984s01.dat

This is the my dev build latest .csl

for use with the 1801 library. I'm planning to complete the shadow this weekend. If someone is missing often used parts in this collection, let me know so I can include them if time permits.

Could be. I do not install with AIOI nor with part update install.
I always download the zip and unpack. Could be not overwritten back then.
I think I'll download complete.zip and point LDCad to that to use as library.

Thanks again :-)
