|
| I'm looking for a specific dolphin part (Item No: 33499pb01) that is in the
Bricklink marketplace and in a new Lego set (60438). However, I can't find
it in Bricklink Studio, even though I've searched for it and checked the
filters. I also tried to import it from LDraw, but they don't have a 3D model
for it either.
This part is essential for my project, and I don't want to use any other
dolphin parts (such as Item No: 13392pb01). Is there any way to get this part
in Bricklink Studio? How can I solve this problem?

Hi,
First, the usual note: 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
There’s a subforum, aptly named “Studio Parts,” to ask for parts: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewforum.php?f=6
And there’s a nice “I can’t find this part” FAQ https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6368
Then, there’s a 3D model on digital-bricks.de, a raw conversion from LDD,
plain/no decor. You can import it in Studio through PartDesigner.
(And it even doesn’t look as bad as LDD models generally look  )

Or open it in LeoCAD or mecabricks, save as .obj, and import this is Part Designer,
it'll make a Custom part - IIRC, didn't do this for a few months

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.

If you’re going through PD, there’s no reasons to go through a .obj file: PD
can import the LDraw .dat file.
Unless you’re talking about using an LDD/LXF file with that dolphin. That would
mean you need LDD to make that file first.
And then:
1. I still don’t see how LeoCAD could import it if there’s no LDraw file for
it on your system first.
2. Studio can also import LDD files and has some of Digital Bricks’ files to
do that even when the parts aren’t in its Main palette (but not that dolphin).
Sounds like a mathematician’s solution:
Problem 1: You a match, a pot. How do you make boiled water?
Solution 1: You find wood. You arrange the wood to make a fire. You light it.
You find a source of water. You fill the pot with water. You put the pot on
the fire. You wait.
Problem 2: You have a fire, a match, a pot full of water. How do you make boiled
water?
Solution 2: You empty the pot on the fire. You’re now in the same situtation
as problem 1.

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

Hmm, it must be because the part is flexible in Studio. But that’s weird.
The exported part simply says “use XX.dat,” where XX.dat is the 3D model for
the hose. So Studio sees it the same way as the flexible part… well, I’m not
clear on why that prevents Studio from showing it but that’s the only lead I
have 
| | | | The only way it works is:

In that case, you’re exporting a new 3D model, not linked to the part’s (file)name.
So Studio doesn’t have it in its database.
Maybe it could also work if you simply fed PD the XX.dat of the part but under
another filename.
(Studio doesn’t have the subparts/primitives u9053.dat (end) and 77.dat (hose
section) as parts and even less as flexible parts, so there should be no need
to do the rename dance further down the hierarchy.)

“Studio can flex it” = https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/6481921905303-Flexible-parts
“…hahaha” = the part actually becomes an overcooked noodle, it’s stretched, and
it goes every which way but the one you want.
“importing the straight LDraw part” = if the hose is XX and you import a file
that just uses XX.dat, then you’re importing the unflexed part. And, AFAICT,
LeoCAD doesn’t bend parts in its LDraw files. It uses the part (XX.dat) and
adds a comment to tell itself how to bend the part when it will reload it. That
comment is obviously not interpreted by PartDesigner or Studio (or LDView or
other LDraw tools).
So, no, you can’t import an LDraw file with flexed parts made in LeoCAD. You
indeed need to go through another format to force LeoCAD to write the triangles
of the part when flexed, and then use PartDesigner.
(
I think something similar happens with LDCad, but with its own syntax of course.
LSynth ‘correctly’ uses subparts to make the flexed parts… but then it has
no UI. And so you can keep everything in the LDraw format. But you also end
up with multiple (sub)parts and no relation to the BrickLink part… so you generally
also go through PartDesigner to add that.
IINM, MLCad uses LSynth.
For LDD, you can use lxf2ldr(.html), my converter(s), that generates() LSynth
commands (so you need LSynth too).
)

I said it upper; you import or create the ldraw file in LeoCAD, there you can
bend it nicely (no noodle), then export as .obj, then import in PD, then studio...
I'll try with studio, but with LeoCad you can do very nice curves adding
as many "handles" (don't remind the term) to make as many curve points
you wish...

Alt works too: 1LDU.
It was added after the writing.
And for Rotation too: Alt+arrow = 0.1°.

You'll find someone!
After all, human beings survived down under the oceans, in space, on the moon,
so it should be (a bit) easier...

I use LeoCAD for huge building, for those bent parts, or more often for placing
things Studio refuse to, while legit and constructible of course...

I never¹ get it when someone says that. Studio allows you to place anything
anywhere, in an easier way than LeoCAD.

¹ Well, yes, I get it: they never read the help pages https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/5411126626199-Translation-tool

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

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

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?

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...
