We have enough international members in here, maybe you all can help…

Long story short, I can’t open a bank account in Germany until I have an address
which is a few years off. Ideally it’s with Commerzbank since most of my transfers
are to a corporation that banks there too and I like to keep things simple.
I send about €15,000 over every year and it seems like every time I go to do
it the conversion rate drops.

Like around November the conversion was at .96 and then it dropped to .92 by
the time I did the transfer. Somebody suggested I use Wise. But can I purchase
euro and keep them in an account or can you only transfers? I’d prefer to buy
and hold when rates are favorable.

I recently started using Bricksync and it works well however the "blmaster
on/off" option confuses me a little. it says you're supposed to never
change your inventory and stuff unless that mode is on and when you are done
you then turn it off however nothing seems to "break" if I change/add
things without turning it on and then later turn it on and off to cycle it to
process any changes I made. So my question is, am I missing something important?
I dont make it a habit to add stuff unless it's on but want to know if I'm
misunderstanding and it doesn't make a big difference if you add stuff without
turning it on or what.

Hello. I got what I think might be a suspicious email last night at precisely
midnight UK time ( 8pm Bricklink time ).

I didn't open it because I thought it might be a hack attempt, but it was
from Bricklink Team and the title was Attention sellers.

I'm wondering if anyone else received a similar email?

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.

321 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2024

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.

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.

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.

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?

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

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?

I'm wanting to use these Powered-Up items but they are not supported in Studio
:
- Train Motor bb0896c01
- LED Lights 88005-1

Studio does support the HUB and Controller, but I am puzzled why the motor and
LED's have not been added. I have sent requests over the past 2 years to
get it done but no luck. I did create my own motor in Part Designer and it works
great with Studio, but gets rejected when importing into ReBrickable.

My designs include the 88005 light, again created using Part Designer, but that
gets rejected by Stud.io - as in the price price doesn't get updated or exported
and hyperlinking to Bricklink fails.

Cheers
Peter

I'm not sure if this is the right place or even possible, but I'd
like to request some features for future updates which I think is pretty simple
and quite crucial for instruction making.

1. Arrow borders - Would be great to be able to have borders for arrows as per
Lego instructions

2. Groups - This will be quite useful for workflows. It is not the same as submodels
in that submodels will be blown up in instructions as separate steps but Grouping
is mainly for viewport modelling. We can group parts in specific areas for easy
isolation to work on, but they do not show up as a submodel in instructions.
It's primarily for working in the viewport during the design process.

3. Isolate/unisolate - Some of you will know by now where I'm coming from
and what my workflow is like. I'm a 3ds max user and having the option to
isolate and unisolate parts is very useful especially for complex projects. The
current Hide tool only allows you to hide specific objects and then unhide all
of them later. While this is useful, it would be easier to be able to isolate
groups to work on them, then unisolate them. Then move on to other another group
or specific areas. It ties in to the Group function. Imagine being able to select
a Group, isolate them, modify, then unisolate then, then move on to another Group.

With the current Hide/unhide workflow, you will have to reselect parts to hide
again which can be tedious. Again, while I understand submodels work almost the
same way, submodels are technically separate micro-builds in the instructions
which should be able to hold it's form before attaching them to the main
model, but that is not always the case as some designs require building ON the
main model and these will end up having hidden layers of pieces underneath which
can be difficult to select and modify later on. If they can be grouped together
and isolated then it will improve the workflow a lot.

4. Option to insert rotation as separate steps, along with rotation arrows. It's
not like the flip symbol but it's used to show that certain pieces needs
to be rotated before moving on such as hinges.

Sorry if this is a useless post but I just want to share some ideas that could
improve the software. Even if it doesn't get implemented, at least I've
put it out there for consideration.

My studio pops up every time it starts, unable to create or load.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the software, but it still couldn't solve the
problem. May I ask which professional knows how to handle it?

I may or may not have let my intrusive thoughts win and proceeded to dump 225
litres of slopes onto my table
