@PURPLENINJA, Yes, If you select only a leg you can change the two different colours of it.
but how?
Check the one you want to change 1, 2 or both and just click on any colour in the palette.
I keep having bricks that i can't click on or change, and the only way to fix it and change it again is to save and refresh the page. I accidentally saved the wrong part of a model i was working on, and now i cant retrieve the older version of the model. Does anyone know how to retrieve this, or if it's possible?
Mecabricks saves all versions of a model. Every time you click on the save button a new version is saved and you can reopen any of them.
How can i retrieve it?

hello???hi???
@Scrubs my properties panel disappeared.
@GuyBLAH, check you browser zoom and set to it 90 or 100%. This is the most common question here on this forum!
Excuse me, I need a shortcut for grouping things. I am trying to build a truck and trailer and need 2 groups
How do i add glowing effect to items
@Shaunthefirefighter, Shortcut to make a group is J key, to Un-group use ALT + J. You have a list of all shourtcuts in the first post by Scrubs in this thread.
@Dgards, When you're in render mode you can add emission to materials in the Lightning properties in the right menu. Just choose the material and click the plus icon.
Yeah, but I can only select pieces individually.
Use CTRL + LEFT mouse click to add or remove parts to you selection. If you press W key you also have some more selection options.
Thanks Sealund. I will give it a try
Na laptopie którym korzystam ma duży ekran i nie mogę wybrać koloru i nie mogę zrenderować nie wiem co mam robić
how do u copy
@jonastizzle, If you mean copy parts in a model, use Clone tool (D key).
Is it possible to implement a feature where you can put a piece in a group by selecting the group you want it in Parent under Object?
This is so that you wouldn't have to drag pieces to a group anymore, which is time-consuming.
