This post may be a rehash of existing info, but if not, here’s some of the details of updates of the new LEGO Digital Designer version 1.3 that has recently been released:

• Support for the LEGO Factory (http://www.legofactory.com) palette of bricks

• Support for the LEGO BrickMaster (http://www.legobrickmaster.com) palette of bricks

• Brick accounting (make sure that you model keeps within a specific assortment).

• Interactive camera controls (hold the ALT key while click-dragging the mouse).

• Remove UI controls to get more building real estate (press the TAB key).

• Build upside down.

• The base plate is replaced by a sticky grid.

• Introducing Intelligent LEGO Connections (place pieces even though they’re not near a valid connection, good for vehicles etc.)

• Keyboard short-cuts for everything (see the manual for details).

• Convert a model from one brick palette to another (right-click in the Restart/Open model dialogue)

• Render in different environments (press F3 in View mode to toggle backdrops).

• Building instruction player (press F2 in View mode).

• New selection tools: Select same colour, Select same design.

• Now always rendering in the same quality/level of detail as the printed LEGO instructions.
