Changes:
With the release of 1.8.83 you are able to...

  • ...change colour themes via "Tools..."->"Options..."->"Customise Colours:"->"Theme" (e.g. to dark mode/dracula theme) to make the software easier on the eyes.
  • ...use "Swap X/Y/Z (for Selection)".
  • ...use "Set X/Y/Z (for Selection)" to set the manipulator position, too.

The following critical issue is fixed:

  1. Sometimes the text-editor remained read-only until the file was saved (e.g. after Edger2 runs).

When you install LDPE on Windows you will find your LDPE configuration files under
drive\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\LDPartEditor.

LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

System Requirements:

Minimum System Requirements:

  • OpenGL 2.1 compatible Graphics Card
  • Operating System (64-bit): Windows [7 or newer], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]
  • CPU: Multicore-Processor e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon II (>2.0Ghz)
  • RAM: 4GB
  • Video-Memory: 1 GB
  • Free Disk Space: 150 MB

Recommended Requirements:

  • Operating System (64bit): Windows 7,8,10,11, Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]
  • OpenGL 3.3 compatible Graphics Card
  • CPU: Multicore-Processor with 4 cores (or more)
  • RAM: >4 GB
  • Video-Memory: >1 GB
  • Free Disk Space: 500 MB
  • For a faster start, the LDraw™ library should be installed on a SSD.

PS: I am still busy with the creation of the manual, so you "have to experiment" with my (complex) software product until you've got the manual.
