Changes: With the release of 1.8.97 you are able to... - ...use increments from the snapping configuration on the "vertex data" window. - ...use new shortcut keys for "Hide" and "Show" (Alt+H, Alt+S). - ...benefit from the fact that the "Save As..." button of PrimGen2 doesn't close the window, so that you can easily generate a family of similar primitives.
The following critical issues are fixed: 1. "Merge to Nearest Vertex" merged a vertex to the origin (0|0|0) if no nearest vertex was found. 2. It was impossible to use translation and scaling for type 1 lines when the file was not found. 3. The duplicate check did not handle missing zeros.

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.
