I placed 2ea LED9R2_5V parts on a small board and put one of them on bottom. Not all of it goes to the back! Sure looks funny.
Let me back up a bit. Apparently, the 3D model of the LED is made of 5 parts: a short bottom cylinder with the flat, a narrower tall
cylinder for the body, the two pins, and a sphere for the rounded shape at the top.
When placing the LED on the far side of the board, the sphere stays on top - floating in free space. I'll just chaulk this up as a
temporary anomoly.
My question is, how can I make 3D parts out of separate shapes? For example, on a trimpot, I would like to place the adjustment
screwhead on the side to show where it is located in 3D. It would be a short cylinder with it's axis perpendicular to the board.
I'm using version 10.1 on WinXP (eagerly awaiting Win7!)
Unfortunatly, I can't seem to get the attachment button to work. You'll have to try placing one of those LEDs on a board & try it.
