| I find it extremely irritating that the two options for the background while
rendering are: No background (renders as a png of only the MOC) and Floor (sets
the floor to a color, the background is black or white depending on light
type, has the bricks reflect the color of the floor as well) Why can't we
have an option that is like floor, but fills the entire background with the selected
color?
Yes, I understand that one could just lay the PNG from no background over a solid
color, HOWEVER, the thing about floor is that the reflected light color being
tinted towards the floor color is really nice, and makes the model seem to glow
the color of the floor.
Additionally, I find it annoying that while picking a color for the floor, there
is not a way to see what color the floor will actually end up looking like after
being lit unless you start rendering.
My suggestions are:
–Add an option for rendering that functions like floor, but fills the entire
background with selected color/
–Add option to see what color the floor/background will actually end up being
once lit, or add an option to lock the floor/background from changing color due
to lighting.
I think these are very much needed especially the first one, the renderer is
slightly dysfunctional without it in my opinion, and there isn't a way to
manually fix it perfectly. The best you can do is smart crop the color of background
out and then the entire image over a solid color that matches the floor. However
this doesn't work if the floor color or the model is too close to the color
black, and even then it really doesn't look that good.
I would very much appreciate it if these changes were made, and I think others
would as well.

| I used Brickstock to Load my stock into the store but the Price Guide that BL
has is a wonderful estimate to what I would do using Brickstock.
However, a piece of the parting out could be pushed to one degree further if
only you were able to have the BL system tell you what the items are that you
do not have.
In the attachment, off of a random set, I have the majority of the lots in my
store, but do not stock 4 of them. This is where it would be wonderful to have
a quick way of knowing what those 4 Lots are. Is there a way this already exists?
The only want I know of to check on this is to run an upload from Brickstock
into BL, take it to the verify screen and review the items that are not being
consolidated. Is there another way that is helpful?
Thank you

Take a look at a tool named bricksync. You can evaluate an inventory and
see which parts you have and don't have in your inventory in brickstock.

| You can see it by looking at which parts consolidate.
Check the youtube videos thet Bricks on the dollar has about how he uses Brickstock
to part out sets.
He has a series of 4 videos showing the whole process.
They are very informative.

| When I want to buy something under the “Items for Sale” tab, all of the items
from all of the countries are listed.
It would be nice to see only USA sellers.
Under the “Price Guide” tab there is a way to change the settings to see only
USA prices.
Can that also be applied to “Items for Sale?
Thanks

Already exist. Check USA in your Catalog, Price Guide and Wantlist settings:
