I created an account to ask a question about LDD

[tommy-gee37]

So i've been building a set on LDD and have been working on it on and off for a couple of months. The thing is however, is that the list of decorations available in the application for the body is limiting for my creations.

I realise that there are a grand total of 1,509 decorations in the .lif file, and would love to have full access to all the available textures in the .lif file. Is there a way to access all of the decorations in the .lif file in the application itself?

I thought this especially may be possible now that LDD has a scroll bar when selecting a decoration, that the left over decorations could be shown when scrolling down.

Thanks for all your help.

Hello

Welcome to the EB forums.

Short answer - no, unfortunately there is no way to access any more decorations from inside the application itself.

The best way to access the extra "hidden" decorations available is by using the LXF-file that Aanchir has created and "copy-paste" the bricks with the decorations from there. Have a look at the index topic here in the forum, and you'll find a lot of goodies. If you want even more decorations than that you need to use Ldraw. LDD is great for what it is - a simple, free software, but it has some limitations. If you need more power under the hood, Ldraw is the way to go.
