Changes:
With the release of 1.8.87 you are able to...
- ...display the axes of coordinates in the center of the 3D screen (it is also used in the first 3D view for PartReview)
- ...set and see a different selection color than red in backface-culling modes.
- ...have 4 digits in the last section of a mixed-mode torus description (e.g. 1 x 2.0000 x 0.2500).
The following critical issue is fixed:
- [OpenGL 3] Crash when adding a line, triangle, quad, condline, distance meter or protractor to an empty file.

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.
