DefaultUser1234 and menaceman44 , I've added the snow issue to the list. I've also added the sort order issue.
peacemaker , I've added both issues to the list.
wannabegarystu , we can look into making the palette feature work with custom thumbnails. Studio has an alpha "import all" feature on the cheat menu that will batch import all diffuse textures and swatch thumbnails. You can read more about it HERE. Please note, that feature is in alpha testing only - but it's in the most current version if you want to give it a try. The setup allows batch import as long as the batch exported files are not renamed. Also, one person has already reported it is not importing specular and bump textures (so we know it needs more work).
Memphis Creations , Studio has features that allow you to look at objects and CAS items without cloning them first. Both features can be accessed through the cheat popup. The one for objects is: objects-preview
The one for CAS is: CAS-preview
Bakie , I've added this to the list.
Eli , could you give an example of an EA item that has the type of lighting you would like to work with?
s4stuser , improving the interface for batch fixes is definitely on the list.
lexus20 , on the face of it, the request you've made seems as if it should be fairly straightforward. The reality is, though, that it isn't (which is why Studio doesn't have it yet). Adding a feature like this will require some amount of UI work. For this reason, while I'm not saying Studio won't ever do this, I have to say, it probably won't do this anytime soon.
sammoyke , Studio's batch fix "Disallow CC for shower" is supposed to be removing all tags that cause a Sim to wear the item when they should be nude, tags that cause the Sim to feel nude, and tags that cause other Sims to perceive the wearer as nude. The name of the batch fix is a holdover that reveals its origin as a fix for items that appeared on the Sim when the Sim showered, but it should take care of all issues pertaining to nudity. There are some items that will not be affected by this batch fix. A good example is a garment that was cloned from a nude top, made into some type of garment accessory such as a hoodie that wraps around the waist, and then tagged as an earring so it can be worn with other tops. Studio is skipping over things that are tagged as earrings because people wanted their Sim to continue wearing earrings while showering. The batch fix can only do one thing or another. It can either affect all accessories or it can affect none. If the items you've run into are not in this category, please post an example that displays the problem you're having. It may be that it can be batch fixed.
amoebae , Studio has an alpha import all feature that you can read more about HERE. This will work with wall packages also. Please note, is an alpha feature. Early testing has revealed that the specular and bump maps are not imported (so that part needs fixed). Also, it will batch import according to the file names Studio assigned during batch export.
