LPub3d & LDCad - asking for help
Philo replied to kbalage's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
@kbalageAs far as I know neither thing is directly possible. One workaround is to use image import in LPub. You can draw a circle (PNG with transparent background) and overlay it with the model. You can also add a zoomed area (eg. from snapshot with LDView) to show local details. Not perfect, but... -

New software by BrickLink - Stud.io
Philo replied to Superkalle's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Keyword with LPub/LPub3D is: "right-click". There is a lot of things that can be done by right clicking on model, on page background, on part list and so on. For example right click on a submodel background allows to "convert as callout". Right click on model step then "add next step" for multi-step. Not the most user friendly, but works when you're used to (and right click in the right place!). AFAIK arrows must be done externally (callout arrows are created automatically) -

LDraw and power lines
Philo replied to Dilvish's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Instead of LSynth I'd rather suggest LDCad, much more powerful and easy to use. Rope LQ template (cylinder section, 3ldu/1.2mm diameter) should be fine to model power lines. -
Reference Code Lego Part LDD VS LDraw
Philo replied to LEGOFUN's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
MLCad needs an update of "parts.lst" in LDraw folder, this is done as Holly-Wood suggested: in MLCad, File -> Scan Parts and accept the update of Parts.lst when prompted. -
Good idea ;) Jaco's tutorials are probably one of the best source for this https://sites.google.com/site/workingwithlpub/ Partly derived from Jaco's work, you can probably find useful stuff in J.C.
