Is finding specific piece locations in a LDD model possible?

Hi guys,

Is there a way to search for a particular piece (or multiple pieces of the same type) within a LDD model?

It would helpful when trying to figure out if a piece could be substituted with a different (already owned) colour or not.

For example, if a model uses 6 times 1x1 round pieces but I'm not sure where they fit, the only way I can find where they go is to pull the model apart and search for them visually, which can take a fair bit of time if it's a big model.

Yes,it is possible. Check the small tools that appear under the main ones, there you should be able between the selection modes. If you hover over those tools, there should appear the name of the tool. Choose the "Shape selection tool" or "Shape and color selection tool" Then simply select one 1x1 round and the rest will be automatically selected. And if you hold "Ctrl" at the same time, you can select various types of pieces at the same time
