In Studio, whenever you import an official set as a palette, it always fails
to import any parts with stickers. I don't mind not having the stickers myself,
but is there any way to have it automatically import the regular part sans-sticker
instead of just throwing an error?

Currently the only way around this is to manually add them, which gets tedious
with large sets. Has anyone been able to get around this? It's a major hassle
for people who like to build sets digitally.

Store: Set You Up
Hello, helpful folks!
I'm trying to get into the habit of using Brickstore for adding parts to
my store. One feature I'm not finding is to automatically price parts at
6mo average + a set percentage. That would save a lot of time when listing parts.

Anyone know of a way to do this?

How do you quickly price parts for bulk uploads?

If only stu.io would run inside android on tablet or smartphone it would be a
great and very convenient idea...

I have somehow closed to Building Pallet on Stud.io 2.0 and I don't know
how to get it back. I know you can buy going to View, but it covers the whole
screen and I cant minimise it.

It seems that Rotating(Holding the Left Mouse Button) either delays/lags or doesn't
work all together.
I kept hoping this issue would be resolved with new updates but it seems I might
need to inquire.

I installed Studio 2.0 today and when launched I get a "checking database 10/100"
nothing appears to happen after that -- how long does this take?

As a follow-up to my previous suggestion for the "Any Color" option in Studio/Bricklink,
I would love to see a "visibility inspection" (or "visibility analysis") button
you can press to identify all the bricks that are completely closed off from
the exterior and thus hidden from view. These "hidden" interior bricks do not
require any special colors to be picked out because no one can seem them, and
people would normally want to buy whatever color is the cheapest on Bricklink.

Currently it is possible to manually distinguish these interior elements by setting
them to one specific color (for example, bright pink so it stands out), but it
is tedious to manually designate them during build. Also, as you continue to
iterate your models, what you have previously designated as "hidden" bricks may
later become visible and vice versa, which introduces human error. With the proposed
"visibility inspection" button, you can just hit the button after the design
is finalized, select all the "hidden" bricks, and change them all to your own
"hidden bricks color" of choice, or in case my other suggestion for the "any
color" option is implemented, they can be designated as "any color," so it's
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.

I think it would be great to have an "any color" (or "unspecified" or "undecided")
option. For many elements that eventually become hidden inside your model (e.g.,
skeletal structures), it doesn't matter what color they are. However, depending
on what color you choose, the cost of ordering bricks from Bricklink later on
can fluctuate drastically. I don't want to worry about "what is the cheapest
color for this particular brick" in the middle of designing my model every time
I'm picking out a brick that will not be visible. One thing I do right now
is just pick out a random color (some obscure color you're not going to use
anywhere else) and designate that color to all your hidden colors, so I can worry
about picking colors later, but this doesn't give me a realistic cost estimate
while I'm building a model. I want an "any color" option (essentially meaning
"I don't care what color this is as long as it's the cheapest color)
for your bricks and the cost estimate to reflect the cheapest price regardless
of color. The "any color" brick can show up as hashed or checkered in your screen
to indicate its unspecified status. This will also help when I share my .io file
with someone, and they will be able to make a better and more up-to-date purchasing
decision by knowing which bricks will end up being hidden from view and can be
thus purchased in any color. Ideally, this feature would be implemented both
on Studio and Bricklink.

I would love to see a "resize" button that I can use to easily lengthen or shorten
bricks in-place. For example, if I used a 1x4x1 brick in my model but decided
to swap it out for a longer 1x6x1 brick, I would love to be able to just click
the "resize" button, which would make arrows appear in 6 different directions)
and elongate or shorten an existing brick in any of the three axes to obtain
the longer brick instead of having to delete the old brick, hunt down the new
brick in the menu, and place the new brick. Same goes to plates, tiles, liftarms,
etc. that are each just essentially the same "families" of elements that come
in many different sizes. Resizing the "height" might be a little tricker but
being able to resize in-place in the lateral axes would be great.

Hi all,

New to Studio I decided to take an Interceptor with hyperdrive instructions and
recreate it in Studio to learn how it all works. I have been able to build the
whole hyperdrive and started on the ship but even with using the connect feature
and taking time to know each piece is "clicked
"into place" the brace inside the hyperdrive that will connect the interceptor
will not attach to both ends of the hyperdrive.
Is there a trick, something I am doing wrong?
I built it outside of the ring and tried to just drop it in, when that didnt
work I brought in parts one a a time.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I'm new to Studio 2.0 and PartDesigner, and I'm trying to replicate
some of my real sets.

One of them has a Police sticker for this part:
 
Part No: 44661  Name: Tail Shuttle, Small
* 
44661 Tail Shuttle, Small
Parts: Tail {White}
.

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

Whenever I try to render an animation, my computer freezes at the exporting step.
I'm on an M1 MacBook Pro.
Other types of rendering work perfect. Anyone else have this problem?

I'm in the United States and placed an order from a Canadian store.

When I import the order to Brickstore, the price is in CAD.

Is there a way in Brickstore to change the currancy?


Thanks,

Hallo zusammen,

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!


Gruß datenpooler

1st let me say how annoying it is that there isn't actual a Studio 2.0 section
to go to for answers.

2nd, let me say how annoying it is that the Studio 2.0 download page itself doesn't
have this info in the first place. it makes no hardware suggestions, just minimum
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!!!!

Hi all, just wondering if Studio 2.0 will have a VR version. Occulus Quest 2
and other headsets have hand tracking which would work well with Studio. Would
allow better fidelity of complex builds and greater precision for solving complex
geometries. Would also be super fun for kids to be able "walk through" buildings,
vehicles, scenery, etc.
Thanks!!!!

Hi everybody,

I am trying to add some decals to a studio file but am having trouble loading
Parts Designer on my Macbook.

I'm running Monterey.

Is there an alternative way of adding decals or a different version of Parts
designer?

Thanks

When you import an official lego set, you have the option of as palette or in
scene. I assumed the in scene means assembled in whole. However regardless
of selection, it imports it as palette. Is it not possible to import a fully
assembled lego set?


Cheers.

I just download PartDesigner and whenever I try to open it the app will ask me
to specify studio folder, but the PartDesigner file and Studio files don't
show up in the pop-up file window. What am I supposed to do here?
