[HELP] LDD colors

Recommended Posts

I was browsing my files today and found an LDD Model( not mine) that used bricks in 107 - bright bluish green. I can color pick it and paint later, but can't find it in the palette.

My questions are:

-Have there been colors that now are unavailable?

-Am I so idiot and don't know something about the usage of the bucket tool?

Bright bluish green is what the color most of us call turquoise. Since the color is not in use and has not been for about a decade (I think) TLG included it in the LDD extended at the bottom of the color palette under "legacy"

[...] turquoise. [...]

"Dark Turquoise" :wink:

I think you can't seen it because it's 'hidden' (just like on my computer).

Just for info, LDD/Brickset and LDraw/Bricklink colors name are different. :wink:

I only have 8 colors in the legacy , and 107 isn't one of them

"Dark Turquoise" :wink:

I guess so

EDIT:

found it . Rotated the screen 90 degrees , and boom, two rows more of colors

Is there any way to report this error?

I also get same problem when viewing color palette.

My laptop is 1920x1080 and I can't see the top rows of color if the LDD window is maximized. If I shrink LDD so it is not maximized (LDD default), I can see the top rows but I can't see the bottom rows.

I strongly suspect the bug stems from Windows display setting where you have option to change size of text, objects, and apps to 125%, 150%, or more rather than default 100%. I have mine to 125% because the text on my laptop screen is a bit small and hard to see otherwise.

Actually I have a file that someone posted on here that contains every ? LDD color. A lot of unincluded ones.

Click!

It's juuust missing 3 colours:

  • 329 - White Glow
  • 330 - Olive Green
  • 336 - Silver Ink

Silver Ink doesn't show a material name in LDD, but the name has been confirmed elsewhere and the colour renders properly (unlike 132, 299, 301 and 306).

I made an expanded palette ages ago with placeholders for colour codes up to 384, for the sole purpose of spotting new additions.

(336 isn't on this preview image, but trust me it's in LDD)
