Re: [OpenSCAD] Setting Normalized Tree limit from command line?

I have always assumed that the GUI preferences are also used by the command
line. I have it set to 100000 and never see an issue rendering complex
models on the command line.

Are you running the command line from the same user account as you run the
GUI?

No, GUI preferences are not available at all when running from
command line.

The setting is available as "--csglimit=num", not sure when
it was introduced though.

ciao,

I wonder how I manage to render a full model of a Mendel90 without ever
setting this.

without ever setting this.

Maybe due to the well placed render() calls?

Both the cmd-line and GUI defaults to 100K.
I believe this number was increase to 100K a few versions ago..

Thanks, I'll try as soon as I'm at the correct computer!

I have a sneaking suspicion it won't help, though, as it previews just fine
in the GUI with a setting of 100000, but the command line doesn't and
complains that it's more than 100000.

I'll try, though, and get back about how it works.

Thank you, worked like a charm!

Perhaps the documentation could be a little clearer on the subject, it is
just listed without any explanation.

Anyway, I really love OpenSCAD, it works the way I think. It's a
programmer's CAD.
