Frutiger Home Decorating & Edit Style
Place furniture, choose its part in Edit Style and confirm the colour. In 1.0.8 use Gameplay → Show HUD or Ctrl+H for a clear picture. Use the main-menu Steam Workshop button to browse or upload houses.
Place, select, then style
Choose a home layout, place furniture from the catalogue, then open Edit Style on the item. Check the selected part before changing its colour: the demo reference window shows a Seat selector, a hex colour field, opacity and saved custom colours. Confirm the change on the part you intended.
For a first room, place the large objects and leave walking space before fine styling. If the wrong surface changes, check the part selector and selection before moving the whole object. Hex and opacity values shown in an older screenshot are an example of that chair, rather than a preset required by the game.
Use the current transform gizmo
Since 1.0.6, the transform gizmo renders above objects and can be interacted with through them. If another item covers the selected handle, try the handle on the selected object before dismantling the room to expose it.
1.0.7 fixes gizmo pixelation on some devices. 1.0.8 fixes its movement on fans and collisions that prevented removal of some very small scaled decor. For an object that became difficult to select after shrinking it, update first and retry the selection/removal action in the same scene.
Check saved materials and catalogue filters
1.0.6 fixes material settings on prebuilt fixed decor not saving correctly. 1.0.3 fixes paints and wallpapers filtering incorrectly in different languages. If a colour is missing after a reload, distinguish a saved material from an item hidden by the catalogue filter; they were different bugs.
The demo announcement describes automatic saving while decorating and save carry-over to the full game. Keep the original save when moving from the demo, and compare the property you are opening before assuming a different-looking room is the same save.
Hide the interface for a screenshot
In Gameplay, use Show HUD to toggle all HUD elements together. The default shortcut is Ctrl+H. Version 1.0.8 also adds a setting to disable the custom cursor. These are presentation controls: hiding the HUD does not remove furniture, export the property or upload a Workshop item.
Share a property through Workshop
The main menu's Steam Workshop button arrived in 1.0.1. It lets you browse houses or upload a custom house. Versions 1.0.4 and 1.0.5 fix property export and making property mods; use those fixes before repeating a failed export on an old installation.
When asking for help, distinguish exporting the local property, selecting that property for a mod and uploading the mod. Record which stage failed and its exact message. A screenshot of a finished room is different from a Workshop property another player can load.
For wall openings, use the building guide. For a friend who cannot enter the house, use co-op connection checks.
