Place a Bicycle over a tile in LDD

[Snowspeeder Pilot]

Hello Chaps,

I hope you can help me on this, I am trying to place a bicycle on a tile but it's not possible.

Do you know how? Do I need a special brick or something?

Thanks in advance.

Try using a scaffolding.

The trick consists in selecting the bycycle toghether with another piece that you can move freely.

Select both, move the other piece and the bycycle will be moved with it.

I converted your oversized image in a text link and changed the title of the topic with a more significative one.

my first thought was instead of a tile, use a jumper with a 1x1 plate?

Hi Snowspeeder Pilot,

I think Calabar's answer applies to Lego Digital Designer (LDD)

Dhivael's to real bricks 'n' studs.

Anyway, if it's the skinny wheeled bicycle you're talking about, I think you'll have more luck with a:

1x2 (Radiator) Grille / Tile, Modified 1 x 2 Grille

among the tiles. The tyre should fit snugly nicely, but not too tightly between the fins.

Good luck,

LLL

You are true, I supposed Snowspeeder Pilot was asking help for LDD because the image seemed an LDD screenshot and because it is a typical difficulty for LDD builders.

Let's wait the he will clarify the situation (and if necessary I'll edit the thread's title again).

Another solution in LDD could be to place a 2x2 plate under the bicycle, because the bicycle has a "hook" thought to fit among studs. Once placed the bicycle replace the plate with the tile. It should work if LDD has correctly implemented this connection.

Alas, @Calabar! I checked and it does not work in LDD: bicycle 73537 will not fit onto a plate with studs (such as 3022) like it does in real life . Could this be a bug?

[Calabar]

Oh, ok, forget it then!

Yes, it seems a bug, or a misconnection at least.

Hello Guys, thank you so much for your help! Yes, I am trying to find the solution on this on LDD.

Using your tips, I did this.

Then, I move all to the place that I need, I deleted the parts and this is it.
