Hello, I just recently downloaded and started using the Studio+Parts Designer
applications and i’ve rather quickly run into an issue. When attempting make
any part of a minifigure double sided, what ever texture I applied first starts
almost fading away. Say i’m doing the head, i’ll apply the norma face and it
looks fine, but than when i add a second expression on the back the texture on
the front looks like the sides of the lines are starting to dissipate, and the
more i futz with the size and placement of the back texture, the more the front
texture disappears until the head just looks blank. It’s doing this on every
minifig piece. Hopefully the way I wrote this makes sense lol

Hi,

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


I think your problem comes from the fact PD uses only one image that’s applied
all around the head.
So if you make two faces, you have two (transparent) images on top of each other.
You need to use the special Minifig tool.
