Question: when using BrickLink Studio and importing LDR files, is there a way to have the main file reference custom external LDR files? I tried several ways that works with other tools and they fail or get stuck with Studio, and I found no answer on the internet. Thanks! #Lego

- try to use the largest pieces you have
- use one or two types of pieces to create a regular tiling
And there are probably others ones

I wonder in how many apps I added a hook to print the call traces of all threads or equivalent to understand why the app was stuck, and I’m still surprised no framework I ever used came with this feature by default
