| 00:29.55 | Twingy | ok |
| 00:30.00 | Twingy | so what do I have to do to get mged working |
| 00:32.47 | brlcad | well, I haven't tracked down (or encountered) that specific problem yet |
| 00:32.56 | brlcad | working on a different issue |
| 00:33.03 | brlcad | but, that said.. yours should be simple |
| 00:33.14 | brlcad | it can't find the tclscripts directory -- where is your tclscripts dir? |
| 00:33.24 | brlcad | should be /usr/brlcad/tclscripts |
| 00:38.42 | Twingy | hrm |
| 00:38.52 | Twingy | looking |
| 00:39.07 | Twingy | in /usr/local/tcpscripts |
| 00:39.12 | Twingy | in /usr/local/tclscripts |
| 00:39.21 | Twingy | prefix was set to /usr/local |
| 00:39.44 | brlcad | and you did a make install? |

| 00:45.56 | brlcad | with or without the trailing slash? |
| 00:46.07 | Twingy | mged fails |
| 00:46.09 | Twingy | without trailing slash |
| 00:46.15 | brlcad | but works with it? |

| 01:00.23 | brlcad | mged uses libbu dynamic, so should be able to just make install and run mged again (without the env var) |
| 01:01.57 | Twingy | interesting |
| 01:02.00 | Twingy | when I goto raytrace |
| 01:02.04 | Twingy | it goes /usr/local/rt |

| 01:31.03 | Twingy | how do I translate? |
| 01:31.06 | Twingy | tra x y z ? |
| 01:31.13 | brlcad | yeah |
| 01:31.19 | Twingy | with something selected first? |
| 01:31.25 | brlcad | right |
| 01:31.32 | brlcad | have to be in an edit-mode |
| 01:32.37 | Twingy | and rotate is p? |
| 01:32.43 | Twingy | p 0 0 90 ? |
| 01:33.33 | Twingy | oh |
| 01:33.36 | Twingy | set function to rotate first |
| 01:43.11 | Twingy | if A,B,C,D are all the same for the TGC |
| 01:43.18 | Twingy | am I setting the radius or the diameter? |

| 02:03.16 | Twingy | I do primitive selection |
| 02:03.18 | Twingy | it's in white |
| 02:03.22 | Twingy | I pull up primitive editor |
| 02:03.24 | Twingy | make changes |
| 02:03.27 | Twingy | hit apply |
| 02:03.29 | Twingy | menu do apply |

| 02:06.00 | brlcad | you never rtfm'd, was never meant for newbs without training |
| 02:06.06 | brlcad | not that it couldn't be way way better |
| 02:07.25 | Twingy | wee |
| 02:09.06 | brlcad | did you type the primitive's name in and hit enter before editing values? |
| 02:09.16 | brlcad | on the primitive editor window |
| 02:09.47 | Twingy | yep |
| 02:09.53 | Twingy | it updates in the window |
| 02:10.06 | Twingy | and I redraw and it goes back to original values |
| 02:10.25 | Twingy | somehow it worked on the other part |
| 02:10.28 | Twingy | and not on this one |
| 02:10.52 | brlcad | hmm |
| 02:11.03 | brlcad | i can reproduce it on a sphere |
| 02:11.11 | brlcad | looks like a bug |
| 02:12.26 | brlcad | it applies the edit to the in-memory representation, but some reason doesn't safe it to disk when you apply |
| 02:12.37 | Twingy | maybe I should RTFM |
| 02:12.55 | Twingy | o.O |
| 02:13.28 | brlcad | maybe I should |

| 03:06.26 | brlcad | yeah |
| 03:06.42 | Twingy | what's the command line version |
| 03:06.48 | brlcad | either select the operation on the edit menu and use the p command, or use sca/tra/rot + accept/apply |
| 03:07.01 | Twingy | what about editing individual values |
