(...) Oh! That's the problem. You have to do this while the part is still clinging to the mouse cursor. This whole clinging-part mode is alien to us Mac users — modes in general are considered evil here, and I keep trying to grab a piece and drag it (...)

(...) I don't know about MAC, but in LDD for PC (I assume is the same principle) once the part is selected, meaning you click with the arrow from the parts pallet, and when the part is shaded then you can rotate the part with the arrow keys.

The pop-up tip says that you can rotate the selected part by using the arrow keys. But the arrow keys don't do a darn thing for me. Has anyone else managed to rotate a part in LDD? Is this just a bug with the new Mac version, perhaps? Thanks, Joe (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Hmm, that could be. That's actually a nice feature; I can see how if you owned one or more of these Designer sets, it might be fun to use LDD to design something you can build with it. (Of course it'd be substantially more productive to just (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Thanks. In the Mac version, you do this via the "Preferences" menu (the only non-system menu) within LDD. It also appears that once you've used this trick to add multiple bricksets to your "active" list, you can then turn "use starter sets" (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) OK, I figured this one out. To use more than one set of a particular palette, right click on the program's task button and go to preferences and make sure "use starter sets" is unchecked. Then, once back in ldd, you can click on any of the (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Hi Joe, It looks to me as though the palettes are merely the parts from each of the current Designer sets. So if for example you select House, you will have available the parts from 4886 (the only one I own). I suspect that once Factory have their (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Meee...eee threeeeeeee. I mean, I think I get it, but errrr ummmm. I don't think I can explain it properly just yet. I think I um....oh boy, I'm gonna try again. I think what is at issue here is the LDD program is trying to use what is available in (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)
