You missed a letter in the last word on the first line and you misspelled it.
The last word should have been: FKDOOHQJH

And then the solution would be:
"LIFE IS A GIFT, BUT IT'S MORE THAN JUST THAT. LIFE IS A CHALLENGE"

I was just browsing your store
FYI, the red banner at the top mentioning closed April 1st is using black text
on a red background, and is fairly difficult to read. I don't know if you
have the option to adjust that background color or text color; but I can imagine
if I had trouble, others will

I think it's those gradient lines in the banner red color that make the text,
what... blurry, I guess.

Just checking if people care about a discout.

It depends. Sometimes with international shipping involved it's just easier
to buy domestically at a slightly higher price, with slightly lower shipping
but getting the package in 3 days instead of 10/14/30...

Just make sure you're covering your costs.

Don't worry about that, most of my stock was bought at about a %65 discount.

Oh farts... You just reminded me that I meant to add a little gift to my 300th
order. Maybe I'll just hold off and save up something good for every 500th.

Might be helpful having a dedicated Forum Topic Charter to follow up on such
email announcements with: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1460563

Just one of several reasons...

Yes, and there are many signs that it's authentic:

- it comes from blservice@bricklink.com
- it is authenticated with DKIM, SPF, and DMARC
- it doesn't link to a login page
- it doesn't ask for your password

I've never heard of a computer's being hacked simply from opening an
email. It's opening attachments, clicking on links, etc. that can cause issues.

I think it’s real for starters there are no links
But be careful it may be a attempt by the scammers to catch us off guard will
a more genuine looking email address.

Yes, mine was from blservice@bricklink.com, warning about the phishing email.
Reminding to be careful.

---Katrina

Same over here. Plus (tho I may be mistaken) in general simply opening an email
dosnt expose you to danger but only if you open a link or download a file that
does so it’s best to open the email and check the sender and if it’s from “@bricklink.com”
exactly with no weird spelling or ending or anything then it’s real

Correct, just reading the email will not cause harm the opening of links in an
email is what will open a person up to harmful malware, Trojans, viruses and
such.

I'm wondering if anyone else received a similar email?

Same here. It looks genuine and has good advice in it.

Yes, mine was from blservice@bricklink.com, warning about the phishing email.
Reminding to be careful.

Same over here. Plus (tho I may be mistaken) in general simply opening an email
dosnt expose you to danger but only if you open a link or download a file that
does so it’s best to open the email and check the sender and if it’s from “@bricklink.com”
exactly with no weird spelling or ending or anything then it’s real

.. never mind. Reducing the size of the individual steps in "view change"

Hi,

Unfortunately, there’s no easy way to do that in Studio

One solution would be to use the special light-emitting colours… and maybe a
custom part (as the ‘official’ part has its colours fixed).


Also, 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:

I don't think so.

You'd have to design and program the constraints / physics on the https://www.onshape.com
, or any high level CAD software for example.

Those would be a long, complicated and particularly expensive engineering task.

You need to identify if there is a light source specified in the render for the
brick. If not, you can either figure out how to insert one yourself at the appropriate
spot, or wait for the developers to add one in for you.

The renderer will only be concerned with the characteristics of the light source,
and have properly set characteristics that will render the effects of the light
passing through the transparent brick part(s), and you should program the information
in the renderer to reflect what a real one should look like.

Perhaps the rendering software handling this brick lighted already has this information
included with it. You would simply have to ensure that the lighting characteristics
for the element are set to display in whatever renderer you are using.

I tried 3D rendering software and usually there is a category specifically devoted
to light source object types. Keep looking for information as it is out there,
hopefully you will figure out it someday!



Cheers ...

  Hi 1001bricks,
could you share the .obj file you tried?

Latest Studio and Part Designer, Win 10, healthy new system 64GB RAM.

Open studio

Open PartDesigner
New, Import, Studio Part, locate or search for "hose" and pick the first
one: 75c03
leave everything as default
File, export to Studio, leave everything as default

Studio, Custom Parts
It shows the name and the file, but no picture, and it places something invisible,
you can see them on the right in the step list, but nothing on your build space

But if you do the exact procedure with a 3001 Brick 2x4, it works 100% as expected.

No change if you close and re-open studio, tried 10 times everything...

Hello!

Million thanks for your help.

I'll reproduce it in a moment and will send you details. It may help if you
send me a private message / e-mail address so I can put screen copies or what
could help you?

Or open it in LeoCAD or mecabricks,

The problem is “it”: the file is not in LDraw, so you need to get it from Digital-bricks.de.
IDK about Mecabricks but LeoCAD can’t create it for you if you don’t download
it first.


   save as .obj, and import this is Part Designer,

If you’re going through PD, there’s no reasons to go through a .obj file: PD
can import the LDraw .dat file.


BTW, I just spent an hour on this, if you import an lDraw file containing a Hose
rigid 3mm in PartDesigner, then when you export to Studio it shows an "empty"
(void) part.

Same if directly importing a Hose rigid 3mm in PD and Export it to Studio.

The only way it works is:
* create or import the lDraw in Leocad,
* export as Wavefront (.obj),
* import in PD,
* export to Studio.

Same with Hose ribbed IIRC.


Weird bug - and yes, it's not the proper place about this
If you know why, no need to start a thread for so few

I was just checking to see what's the average price, and there's a number

LEGO. Either someone placed multiple orders with LEGO to get 50+ sets or they
got it from another means.

Any idea how would someone get 50+ of 40712 sets legally?

those are all in china. rules are very different there. look at US only listings
its only 1-3 qty with one person having 10 as the most available.

Yeah Chinese sellers often have large numbers of promos.

Once I was asked by someone as I left a LEGO Store if I wanted to sell the promotional
set I had been given (for a small amount compared to the BL price). I hung around
for five minutes and noticed there was two guys, one near the till and one outside
the store. And they did get some hits, presumably people that bought something
they wanted and didn't really care about the promotional set and saw the
money offered as a bonus.

Washington state is the top U.S. producer of apples, pears, and sweet cherries?
Especially the crops in and around our volcanoes, the Rainier and St. Helens

the nation's organic apple crop.

Seems every few homes have their trees blossoming just now. Makes for a wonderful
drive to the shore

And it's days like these that I miss having to pick up my daughter on campus.
I'd arrive early just to wait under the canopy of their famous Japanese imported
cherry trees.

Meanwhile in Chicago…

Hey, I know that roundabout! That's Al Capone Lane

Seriously though, looks like a nice neighborhood. Late spring, or even Summer
and Fall pics would be nice too

But the sale will continue.

Happy buying tonight!

Thank you for honoring your sale, a man of his word!

Order placed for all the minifigs, sets, and various parts (so no need for local
pick-up after all).

Niek.

Well too bad for all the doubters that missed out
Saved me some money

Thanks for posting that the sale did happen too.

Just a heads up you might want to update your store banner. Unless you’re doing
another sale

Thanks for the tip, that could have ended poorly.

Will it work will a larger shipping method? The fig is still in the box, that
may be the issue.

  All Tires in Bricklink have the same problem now:

1) When mated to a Wheel, the tire always ends up on a corner of the "contact
patch" (the greenish box showing the size of the tire, rather than staying
on a side.

2) Any attempt to rotate the tire to a side results in all three rotation arrows
activating, and cause the entire model to rotate, regardless of which arrow is
used.

3) It is impossible to screenshot any of this, as any attempt to screenshot results
in the arrows being switched off.

This needs to be fixed yesterday.

You are on the wrong forum for this question as you are referring to Studio (the
3D modelling app), not Bricklink (the marketplace). See https://forum.bricklink.com

Most likely, you simply have turned the snap option off. This happens occasionally
to the best of people At the very least, at my end tires still do snap on
wheels. Also, this is a property of each part individually, so all wheel-tire
combinations failing at once is unlikely.

The symptoms you describe all match the turned off snap option. Objects not having
connected (1) always result in the rotation tool being shown instead of the hinge
tool (2) and as for screenshots (3), hitting the [PrintScreen] button should
capture the arrows as well.

Anyway, search the Studio forum.

You can use the WASD keys (configurable; step depends on the Grid; direction
depends on the camera angle), or the arrow keys in the Translation tool (https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/5411126626199-Translation-tool
).

That being said, 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

And read/search the help pages: https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/

Thanks, don't mean to spam the forum, just usually don't build larger
things on Studio and am kinda overwhelmed

Image, I agree. But not the convenient symbol of a simple emotion that's
used in place of thought

I would answer: If you know you've committed some egregious acts of late
against your friends, politely refuse their request when a dozen or so of them
invite you out to a late-nite party. Accept nothing - not even a pretzel - from
them for say, the rest of your natural life. Oh, and learn to love living a hermit's
existence, or move to a faraway and undisclosed location.

Stop being an appeaser. It's tiresome and more importantly, it's not
a habit for you to personally adopt in life. Take and maintain a stand. Enough

I don't have to Google jack, holmes. If Shakespeare's tragedy is even
remotely accurate, then Caesar's sin was in forming a plan culminating in
forcing the Senate into declaring him as king of Rome, a title which (again according
to quasi-historical whispers), caused Romans to break out in hives.

What the, Shakespeare! Now, slowly lowering yourself back down to Earth

  
Even if I'm utterly wrong - my strengths lie in English grammar and English
literature, not history - why on Earth would you want to come out swinging as
a provocative history snob? Surely there are more civil ways of tooting your horn?

"my strenghts lie in English grammar and English literature, not history"?
Now I understand your ludicrous statements, and your silliness
