DESCRIPTION¶
LeoCAD is a CAD program for creating virtual LEGO models. It has an easy
to use interface and includes thousands of different parts in its library.
OPTIONS¶
Below is a summary of all of the options that
LeoCAD accepts. Most
options have two equivalent names, one of which is a single letter preceded by
-, and the other of which is a long name preceded by --. Brackets ([ and ])
indicate that an option takes an optional argument.
- infile
- Loads the project file infile
- -i [outfile.ext]
- --image [outfile.ext]
- Saves a picture to outfile.ext in the image format specified by
ext and exits. If outfile is not given then the program will use a
name based on infile. The file format is selected by ext and
can be gif, bmp, png or jpg (if ext is not present then the default
preferences format will be used).
- -w width
- --width width
- Sets the width of the picture to width.
- -h height
- --height height
- Sets the height of the picture to height.
- -f time
- --from time
- Start saving pictures at the step time.
- -t time
- --to time
- Save pictures until the step time.
- --highlight
- Adds a border around the pieces in the step they appear when saving
pictures.
- -l path
- --libpath path
- Use alternate parts library found in path . The Debian version of
LeoCAD uses /usr/share/leocad/ as the default.
ENVIRONMENT¶
``LEOCAD_LIB'' may be set to the path of the parts library.
EXAMPLES¶
$ leocad car.lcd -i car.png -w 640 -h 480
This will start LeoCAD, load the file "car.lcd," create a png called
"car.png" with a resolution of 640x480 and exit when done.
FILES¶
- ~/.config/LeoCAD Software/LeoCAD.conf
- User preferences file
