Hi,

I've converted a submodel (5 steps) into a callout on the page editor. The
callout is too large and does not fit on the page. How do I reduce the size of
the callout?

Thanks for the help!

Is there a Lego program that has physics included to test mechanisms? I know
you can kind of test simple movement and collisions but I am wanting to test
a full mechanism that uses gravity for part of it. This would be good for GBCs.

Set No: 40712  Name: Micro Rocket Launchpad
* 
40712-1 (Inv) Micro Rocket Launchpad
321 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2024
Sets: Space: Classic Space

I was just checking to see what's the average price, and there's a number
of sellers who has 50+ of this set somehow. The set was gift with purchase from
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?

Did you know...

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
regions with that special volcanic soil. Washington produces more than 90% of
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.

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.

Hello. Can all the new parts that are part of set 76922-1 be added to studio
2.0? All of the new or stickered parts will not load on import of the set on
studio. I'm hoping this is not a time comsuming issue as i can go no further
with my builds without those parts being added. Thank you in advance.

Is there any way you can move a piece (using a key or button or something) vertically
up or down in a model without having to drag and drop the piece out and up? I
am working on a large build and just had to replace some 6x8 plates with 6x10
so it threw my whole model off a little bit and am trying to fix it in the most
efficient way possible.

Did the Julius Caesar thread get locked for being political? I thought people

What does that say about our nature?

Today on the anniversary of Julius Caesar's death, Ides of March. Consider
as they say, human nature being immutable or unchanging over time What then
can be gleaned on this day, 15th of March?

When I import a .ldr file into BrickLink, all of the bricks are placed perfectly
sound, except for printed bricks. Even when the .dat item ID matches, in this
case (3069p02.dat), it still doesn't convert the file type to the actual
brick. Even if the brick exists in Bricklink, such as the 3069p02 piece, it won't
budge unless I manually change it. However, I also noticed that occasionally,
but not with this example, bricks such as 3068pb0191 will appear ONLY IF I change
the .dat file name from "3068pb0191" to "3068bpb0191". However,
I would like all of the bricks to be recognized in the Studio software. Any ideas?
And no, manual brick switches are not an option here.

Hello I am trying to export COLLADA files from Studio 2.0, to import them on
3dsmax and I have this issue.
Some of the bricks are not on the correct position, they seem to have lots of
gaps.
I have been dealing with this problem since the past year, and I hoped it will
be fixed by now, but unfortunately, it remain unsolved.

Could you please advise on this matter?

Trying to make a random fig in studio, but any accessories or heads that go on
the torso won't go on without a fight.

I got the neck accessory on after about a halfhour of fighting, but now the head
won't go on.

I position it so it looks like it's on but as soon as I unselect it grays
out.

Just downloaded studio yesterday, and tried it out.
First model turned out good, was very surprised at how easy it was to use.

Hey fellow LEGO enthusiasts!

Theres link below to my Bionicle quiz. (made with google Forum). I centered it
around our beloved Bionicle universe! As part of my research Im doing for my
uni, I designed a super fun and challenging Bionicle quiz, and I thought I'd
share it with you all because who doesn't love a good quiz, especially when
it's about Bionicle, right?

You don't need to be a bionicle fan to do this! : D

I know that there is a dedicated Stud.io forum but it's just a quick question
to figure out whether I'm sane or not. Is it just me, or were there a
lot of Minifigure legs removed from the selection of pieces on Stud.io? I was
sure there used to be more but I could be wrong. One particular piece I was fairly
certain was there that no longer is is:
 
Part No: 970cf00pb03  Name: Hips and Animal Legs with Black Fur Pattern
* 
970cf00pb03 Hips and Animal Legs with Black Fur Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Legs, Modified, Decorated {Sand Blue}
Has anyone else noticed this or am I just insane?

This is a hollow stud for the head, in case it is still relevant for the catalog.

I want to test out some mechanisms I have ideas for with Technic pieces, but
I don't have the pieces I need on hand. Studio lets you rotate and move pieces,
but it doesn't seem to really work with full systems.
I was wondering if there were any ways that I could simulate/test my ideas virtually
instead of needing to order all of the parts before knowing whether it works
or not - Any help is appreciated!

As shown in the picture, I can't put these parts in the correct position
because I can't adjust them as flexibly as in reality. Is there any solution?
