easy to find the cheapest bricks on Bricklink regardless of color.
Additionally, a user option may be provided so that the user can specify what
qualifies as a "hidden" element. Oftentimes, even when two Lego plates are butting
against each other (especially at an angle), there is a very small microscopic
gap between the two, through which another interior brick can be seen through.
These microscopic gaps are always present (even in official Lego sets) because
of the innate margin of error or give (usually like 0.1-0.2 millimeters) that
is built into all Lego elements. The "visibility inspection" button can be designed
to take these factors into account and also let the user decide how granular
you want to be when deciding what is visible and what is not.

There is a separate forum for Studio, and a special subforum for parts.
Please read the Studio Parts FAQ at https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6368
If you manage to find a 3D model of the part, then it could be contributed to
the Studio parts library. Without model there is no possibility of adding the
part.

Hi and welcome,
First, the dedicated forum for Studio and PartDesigner is https://forum.bricklink.com/
(hover over the red Studio icon on every page, then click “Studio Forum”).
Please search the forum for your question before posting a new one (the search
box is in the very dark grey banner).
There’s indexes of known bugs and suggestions that you can browse first:
Studio: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5579
PartDesigner: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5589
Then, for your problem, it’s a known bug of the last version. The image appears
with a white background but it’s transparent once applied.
Read more here: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7430
(It’s listed as “Transparent images are not transparent until they are applied”
in PD’s bug list.)

some of my real sets.
One of them has a Police sticker for this part: .
I loaded that part and a custom png I made replicating the sticker into PartDesigner.
However, when importing the image as a decal, it appears with a white background,
even after being exported from GIMP without it.
Maybe I need some specific options when exporting the image so PartDesigner can
detect the empty background? I searched to no avail.
Attached are both the imported png image and what I am seeing inside PartDesigner

| Hi Phil,
I'm the developer of Brick Seller. I've been using it since 2017 to
manage my BrickLink store and more recently, to also manage my Brick Owl store.
There are currently 37 active subscription users of Brick Seller and 14 users
registered for the free 45 day trial.
There are some demo videos available on the home page which are a bit out of
date but still show the main features of Brick Seller (new updated videos will
be available soon).
I would also be willing to have a Zoom call with you so that I could demonstrate
all the features and answer any questions that you have along the way. Please
let me know if you would be interested.

ich möchte ein Modular-Building bauen das kein Quadrat oder Rechteck ist.
Alle Winkel sind zwar 90° (keine Rundungen oder Schrägen) aber halt kein Würfen
oder Schuhkarton!
Außerdem gibt es ja noch den Treppenaufgang, welcher offen bleiben soll.
Also für die Grundfläche kann ich problemlos BasePlates oder Plates nehmen die
größer sind aber wie mache ich das mit den Decken/Böden der oberen Etagen?
Gibt es in Studio die Möglichkeit die Decken/Böden entsprechend den Außenwänden
und Treppenaussparung automatisch legen zu lassen?
Falls Nein, habt Ihr Tipps für mich wie ihr das macht?
Danke für eure Unterstützung!

OS requirement. which is useless, as i have a pretty old Mac that meets the OS
requirements easily, but when running Studio 2.0 it's barely able to start
the app.
3rd, and probably most annoying, i've tried every combination of wording
to search for "suggested" hardware (Mac preferably), and yet i still get the
phonebook of completely useless and unrelated results to said search.
is there anyone out there who can suggest a minimum hardware setup i should be
going for? i'm not in the market to buy brand new, so that's why i ask
about minimum.
i'm currently running an 2.9ghz Intel Core i7, 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3, with Intel
HD Graphics 4000, and it can barely keep up with simple brick selecting, let
alone model manipulation.
thanks!!!!

Not that I'm aware of. Some people post fully-assembled LEGO sets in the
Studio gallery, but unfortunately, they are usually set to display-only due to
copyright infringement. Perhaps there is a better way.

I think on Eurobricks there are threads where people share files of assembled
sets.
I could be a nice addition to the Studio Gallery thought, with a verification

It’s a good guess. Too many triangles, and/or too small triangles.
And it’s cumulative: one part: okay, two parts: okay, third part: it breaks…
and it may be the first or second part that looks weird, not the third.

The palette is the parts list in the left column.
In scene means the parts are all shown on screen.
The only way to show an assembled set is to build it yourself in Studio.
Using the parts one-by-one from “in scene” which will ensure you have used all
the parts, or from the “palette”.

there is a new user "Forian20084" republishing free available MOCs in the "Vehicle"

I already wrote him private messages that this is not allowed and described how

Don't know what is wrong with some guys here on bricklink and why they cannot

Please remove his creations from the gallery, thanks.

Bricklink does not do rendering, so I assume you refer to Studio.
The Studio Forum can be found at https://forum.bricklink.com
Please search the forum for a solution before you post.
It likely has to do with either your graphics card or your render settings.

I think that it’s something like Applications Studio 2.0 on MacOS but I can
certify it.

If you want a list of all the parts in all your sets, you can do this:
Make a copy of your document with the sets, then
Edit › Select All
Edit › Part out item...
Yes, into current document
Check the part out options for each, or just press Return repeatedly
Edit › Select All
Edit › Consolidate
Yes to all
Edit › Select All
And look at the document statistics in the Info dock.

No, I don't think that is available in Brickstore.
In Bricklink you can download the entire catalog of sets - it has the name, year
released and weight but not the part count.
So I'm afraid you would need to look each one up and add to your spreadsheet
manually.

I'm working on a project to compute artwork with Lego bricks from a picture:
https://panbricks.com
I need the closest hexadecimal color code of physical bricks to compute an artwork.
Currently I use a table extracted from https://rebrickable.com/colors/
It works but in some colors I see a significant difference between virtual artwork
and physical artwork (for instance the "Yellowish Green").
I found several sources of color code and one of them is the bricklink's
catalog colors: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogColors.asp
I wonder how the color codes of this catalog have been determined. Is it close
to the physical materials of Lego bricks? I hesitate to change my reference table
to use the bricklink table.
|
This is the reference you should use: http://www.ryanhowerter.net/colors.php
|
The current BrickLink color codes are much closer to reality than the ones on
Ryan's chart. 
|
The BrickLink ones are included, check the "Show All Fan Sites" tab
|
Yes, I know. But they aren't up to date.
|
Fair enough — and, now they are up to date
Really nice work on those by the way. I'm not sure what your method is but
they really do *feel* right, more than any other set of hexes I've seen.
(Mx Aqua Green seems much too dark though?)
Thanks,
Ryan
|
Want to know how I did them?
I used *your* photographs of parts from Flickr to average the colors over many
areas of the image.
|
By the way, I haven't done all of the colors, but I did do quite a few of
them. I think BrickLink has the best HEX values out there now for the ones that
I have updated. I plan to get to more of them, but it takes some time.

The current BrickLink color codes are much closer to reality than the ones on

The BrickLink ones are included, check the "Show All Fan Sites" tab

Yes, I know. But they aren't up to date.

Fair enough — and, now they are up to date
Really nice work on those by the way. I'm not sure what your method is but
they really do *feel* right, more than any other set of hexes I've seen.
(Mx Aqua Green seems much too dark though?)
Thanks,
Ryan

I just looked over the other new Friends sets in promotional images and nothing
jumps out at me. There are a couple of minidolls that look Nougat, but could
maybe be another color. There's a tan terrier in 41718 that could maybe
be a new color.

Oh, I didn’t notice that the patches in BL’s chart got an update too
Now one problem is that RGB values are well and good… but TLG doesn’t make its
plastics by mixing RGB (or rather CMY(K)) pellets and the colours used in instructions
(CMYK this time) aren’t that good nor realistic either. So, one has either to
work hard to find what’s good for their purpose or be content with “good enough”
and, if the latter, about any current list is.

1. It’s Studio, no dot (the dot was removed when it went from 1.0 to 2.0 a few
years ago).
2. The official Studio forum is https://forum.bricklink.com .

Well this just gets weirder. I managed to import a Stud.io file into LDD, and
as I expected it said some pieces couldn't be shown or placed properly, so
most of the structure is present, with a few gaps. But in particular two REALY
weird things:
1. some of the gaps are ordinary run-of-the-mill pieces (like, for example, 1x4
bricks) in totoally ordinary correct placement that now refuse to be filled?
|
If bricks are slightly turned or moved, they can be detected by LDD (or LDD for
that matter) as colliding. That has nothing to do with their “simpleness” but
with maths, and especially with maths on computers.
There can also be wrong conversion information in Studio for some parts.
Also note that LDD removes one part but collisions occur between at least two
parts, so it maybe one of the other parts that is “misplaced” and the “culprit”
but the “innocent” one was removed.
| | 2. Some Stud.io parts DO show in the model in LDD - kind of. For example, the
minifigure utensil ingot piece, or goldbrick, which I didn't know existed
until switching to Stud.io, is displayable in LDD, and even identifies the piece
at the bottom of the window if I highlight one of them.... but if I try to FIND
it in LDD's parts display on the left side, it doesn't show! I can't
find it searching for its part number or its name (neither 'ingot' nor
'goldbrick' work).
|
That must be because you don’t know about the Extended mode of LDD (menu View
| New themes | LDD Extended).
The “normal” mode shows a selection of bricks only and in certain colours only
(no, they are not the actual available/produced colours, or at least they have
not been for a while; of course, some are missing, but, more importantly, some
are proposed while they were never produced).
Extended shows ALL the bricks known to LDD, in a unique colour (by default red),
and you can paint any brick in any colour (with more colours than in “normal,”
and with a different UI).
Also, the last parts updates of LDD (at least the last 3, IIRC) didn’t add parts
to the “normal” mode: the new parts were only available in Extended. They even
_removed_ parts from “normal.”
(The ingot is available in LDD in two versions: 96910, unmarked; and 99563, with
details, in the Misc category (post sign icon). Both have been there since at
least 4.3.9 / 6 years (the beginning of my historical data).)

Click on the second from right icon (book) at the top of the Stud.io main screen
(it says "Instruction" underneath), next to "Mosaic"
The instructions editor is pretty powerful and allows you to manipulate the order
(and way) in which parts are used. Groups and multiples of steps can be made
easily. It's not particularly user-friendly, but it doesn;t take too long
to get the hang of it.

This isn't the studio forum, it's here:
https://forum.bricklink.com/
NEVER "uninstall" as you seem have done; deleting files in C:\Program Files or
such...
If those files are still in your desktop garbage, please restore them first!
Please use your normal application uninstaller to do so (location depends system/version),
just like for any other program.
It should be named like "Studio 2.0" from "BrickLink Corporation".
There are other solutions - but I guess this should be discussed (including with
dev team) in the proper forum.
Hoping that helps -

| | Hi All,
Sorry if this is a repeat topic. Scanned through a little bit and didn't
really find exactly what I'm looking for. Currently I collect and [mostly]
sell Minifigs, and with the additional IRS reporting requirements, I want to
keep better records rather than the arbitrary cost distribution at time of sale
that is currently taking place. I've attached copies of my two spreadsheets
for others to see what I'm doing, with external personal info redacted.
First, I'm spending a ton of time trying to manage 3 separate locations.
When I receive a new fig, I first log the entire purchase in my main spreadsheet,
check if I have the fig in my minifigs spreadsheet, enter it in the spreadsheet
with current avg. used value, and list it in BL if applicable. Previously, I
would log partial figs and identify what was missing, but have moved away from
this with the exception of very expensive ones in favor of just leaving them
in a bin for later addressing. Based on this method, each minifig has an average
sell value, but no true inventory value based on purchase price. Based
on this, I can't establish a true CoGS at point of sale, and as a result,
would be unable to derive accurate P&L during tax time.
If I wanted to figure out actual inventory value based on purchase price, I would
need to know the full lot value, all figures (or pieces) in the lot, and how
I would want to distribute. This becomes difficult when logging in 500+ minifigs,
as I can't distribute until all get logged in. Also, when I keep a portion
of the figs in the lot, I write those off as a sale to myself at $0, usually
at a lower CoGS.
At point of sale, I go through and reduce/delete the minifigs from my minifig
spreadsheet, find a purchase of minifigs that still has value against it, log
the net sales price (gross less 3% BL fee, Paypal Fee, and shipping expense),
and log an arbitrary CoGS that is between 5% and 20% less than sale price.
Do any of the integrations help me simplify my costing and remove that minifigs
spreadsheet in a way that I can track all minifigs I own, and easily push specific
lots to Bricklink (For the same fig, one will be kept, others will get pushed
to the site)? Thanks in advance for the help!

Can anyone help me to render my design?
Everytime I go through the render process, I get a page full of code, then an
error message. The file saves as an i.o file and does not open when I try to
open it.
Any suggestions would be awesome!

| Hi All,
Sorry if this is a repeat topic. Scanned through a little bit and didn't
really find exactly what I'm looking for. Currently I collect and [mostly]
sell Minifigs, and with the additional IRS reporting requirements, I want to
keep better records rather than the arbitrary cost distribution at time of sale
that is currently taking place. I've attached copies of my two spreadsheets
for others to see what I'm doing, with external personal info redacted.
First, I'm spending a ton of time trying to manage 3 separate locations.
When I receive a new fig, I first log the entire purchase in my main spreadsheet,
check if I have the fig in my minifigs spreadsheet, enter it in the spreadsheet
with current avg. used value, and list it in BL if applicable. Previously, I
would log partial figs and identify what was missing, but have moved away from
this with the exception of very expensive ones in favor of just leaving them
in a bin for later addressing. Based on this method, each minifig has an average
sell value, but no true inventory value based on purchase price. Based
on this, I can't establish a true CoGS at point of sale, and as a result,
would be unable to derive accurate P&L during tax time.
If I wanted to figure out actual inventory value based on purchase price, I would
need to know the full lot value, all figures (or pieces) in the lot, and how
I would want to distribute. This becomes difficult when logging in 500+ minifigs,
as I can't distribute until all get logged in. Also, when I keep a portion
of the figs in the lot, I write those off as a sale to myself at $0, usually
at a lower CoGS.
At point of sale, I go through and reduce/delete the minifigs from my minifig
spreadsheet, find a purchase of minifigs that still has value against it, log
the net sales price (gross less 3% BL fee, Paypal Fee, and shipping expense),
and log an arbitrary CoGS that is between 5% and 20% less than sale price.
Do any of the integrations help me simplify my costing and remove that minifigs
spreadsheet in a way that I can track all minifigs I own, and easily push specific
lots to Bricklink (For the same fig, one will be kept, others will get pushed
to the site)? Thanks in advance for the help!
Nadya and Justin

| Hello, I'm writing because there is something wrong with my Part Designer.
I've tried to reinstalled it, along with the Stud.io, but everytime it doesn't
work. Error window says it's because Part Designer cannot find any parts.
I've tired to copy parts file to Part Designer file, or install Part Designer
files in Stud.io files, but it is failure again.
Could you please help me fix it somehow? Stud.io is working very well, but for
my purposes I need Part Designer too.
