Is there anyone else out there beyond Robert Ritger who can tell me more about the CAD program known as "GDS" that makes "GDS things" files?

John: You're in the wrong forum. Talk to Brad Holtz 72377,2060 in the LEAP forum. He can help you with GDS Evan

Things are just as scatter-brained as before <g> Are you keeping busy these days?

yeah, I am keeping busy aat the moment, but will slow down for me soon. I have been pretty busy these past few months though. Say hi to John for me.

Oh, you're right… this is the movie critique forum. ";-)

Just for that I quoted you.<g> My deadline has been met and I'm home relaxing for a day. I can finally upload some "things files' to you as you requested. I can also answer any questions you might have believe it or not. Bob

Oh, I was just trying to flush out any other commentary. You and I, we can conduct this in private e-mail. That would probably be more appropriate. I've got a few more questions for you.

Yes, do you use it?

>>Is there anyone else out there beyond Robert Ritger >>who can tell me more about the CAD program known >> as "GDS" that makes "GDS things" files? Are you talking about the graphics image viewer called GDS? I think you'd be interested in that beause it's such a great utility for making catalog page gifs. You mentioned on the phone last time we talked that it had been a major chore for you to create an image of each of the meshes on the 3D ROM. BTW, when's interchange plus for windows going to be released? DO you have a feature list yet? On 3D ROM II, how is it looking? Do you have many of the mesh files yet? I should have my 2 or three 3DS files off to you by March 1. Thanks, Jim

Nope, not the PD image viewer. It's a 3D package. At one point, I think it was sold by McDonnell-Douglas. It has a file format called "things." No firm date for ICP for Windows. We're hard at work on it now. Lots of wasted time due to compiler bugs, unfortunately. The second edition of the 3D-ROM looks like it'll be a winner. Lots of people have promised very interesting models.
