Yeah, I know: I should/could have this posted in the Studio forum but usually
only Silvain and I are online.

That's why I'm posting it here because I get more feedback here.

I'm complaining about the Parts Designer app. This is very limited when it
comes to tiles. 2x3 and 2x6 tiles are not supported while these parts are in
the BL catalog for a couple of years.

Question: Why is this app not up to date with the newer tiles?

Perhaps I should clarify that I want to make stickers/decals for the tiles mentioned
above.

Not true. You can decorate ANY part in PartDesigner (but indeed only a few selected
parts are presented in the widget).

Just head for the proper forum or help pages.

I've tried it numerous times and checked the help page but it was simply
not working when I tried.

I could import a PNG in Part Desinger AND place it on any brick, like the tiles
I've mentioned, but when I exported it to Studio only the part was exported,
not the design on it.

I tried again today and it worked. I *swear* I did exact the same thing as a
week ago (not working) and today it is working and even renders very well.

This leaves me speechless.
At least now I can redo my instructions for my MOC on Rebrickable.

Thanks again hpoort!
