I want to use the 'GATE 4x8' in a model although can't wok out how to get it hinged properly. What piece(s) should I use to get it hinged? I tried using 'FLAT TILE 1x4 W/STUBS VERTICAL' although couldn't get that to connect on.

The LDD part labeled as a "Gate 4 x 8" is known in Bricklink as the 6105 "Door 1 x 4 x 8 Curved Top". On that Bricklink webpage, I clicked on the hyperlink that said "This Part Appears in 2 Sets (View Them)". I clicked on the 6082 Set Inventory to see what hinges come with that gate/door. There are several different "Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Clips" in that set, so I went to http://www.Brickfactory.info to see specifically WHICH Modified Plate is used with that gate/door.

From the 6082's Building Instruction Page 6 below, it turns out you need an unusually-shaped brick to clip onto the gate/door:

Going back to the Bricklink 6082 Set Inventory, I see the black 3581 "Brick, Modified 1 x 1 x 2 with Shutter Holder". Since the Bricklink part names sometimes don't match the LDD names, I did a search within LDD for the term "1x1x2" (with no spaces between the characters). The 3581 part appears on the short list. :classic:
