Tiny squares allow you to drag your brick around in that plane. It's similar to the arrows, which lock movement to the single axis. In the case of the square, you have freedom to move your piece in two dimensions... along both axis arrows that it sits between. For instance, if you have a brick sitting on the floor, you can use the green square to move it around. The brick will stay stuck on the floor... it won't go up or down.
oh okay
also you can click on one of those three squares and it will Place a block I found out
@Cakery:
TYSM!
This solved the problem, bc for some reason it wouldn't show me the colors when I was in 100% zoom (the default zoom), only numbers higher or lower than that.
I would've never thought of that, so thx!
@SBZ A belated 'you're welcome'!
I dont know how to open the stuff on the right hand side. everything else shows up.
I'm not sure if this exists, but a "disassemble" function would be cool. Like, you load up a set, hit disassemble, then all the pieces are still on the board, but maybe off to the side or something, so you can build it yourself.
hello, My colour section has disappeared. how do I get it back???
how do i flip a brick
my box which allows me to change the colours of my parts has gone. how do i get this back
Hey! Can i know how i can rotate some pieces? Thanks!
Man.
@LegoLandscaper: Save and refresh.
@BeerySwine: unfortunately that doesn't exist here. However, you can view the parts needed to build a model by clicking the "Inventory" tab next to the description.
@Skiska: Save and refresh, or check the zoom of the browser.
@Heist: Multiple ways. Arrow keys or the m toggle to activate the rotation circles, which you can then drag to rotate a part.
@kawasakicoops: Save and refresh.
@hunter.0: same as what I said to @Heist. Multiple ways. Arrow keys or the m toggle to activate the rotation circles, which you can then drag to rotate a part.
how do i save and get that file again?
how do i make a different category?
@coolA- You can find your model in your personal Library.
You can't make a different category.
how do you delete work that you saved?
@leon.101 Delete everything inside a model or delete the model entirely?
To delete everything inside a model:
Go to the top-right area in the workshop (should look like a cursor)
Click on the cursor button and select "Area"
Drag the area across the entire workshop
Hit backspace or delete on keyboard
To delete the model entirely:
Go to your personal library (usually your username near the top-right, but make sure to clear notifications first)
Click on the model you want to delete (don't double-click)
Near the left center there should be a button that says "Delete"; click on that
Wait for the loading to finish
