I have noticed that the deco slots on the back of the mans sofa work but the sims are unable to pick things up from them due to fact they are facing the sofa seat. I would like to put this right by rotating them to face backwards but am unsure what to change the position to. I have read Oms advice in another thread regarding orientation and transformation. the numbers 0,1,0,0 look to me to be the key to turning them around. But what do I change them to. Is it as simple as adding a – or 0? Thanks for any advice.

brujah probably knows how to do this, but I haven't seen him here for a while. I know he even flipped deco slots vertically. I don't know exactly how he did it unfortunatly.

Hey freeasabird, It is possible to rotate deco slots with the Studio. The rotational data fields you are seeing are quaternions that describe the slot's rotation. Orange once wrote some additional information on this here. I haven't worked with slots myself for a while now so I do not know if the feature Orange talks about in this post is ready yet or not. You can try to rotate your slots in blender and see if Studio imports the changed quaternions or you can simply get the quaternions from your blender file and input them in Studio yourself.

Studio imports only mesh data from Blender. All editing of slots/rigs must be done in Studio itself, either on the Studio tab or in the Warehouse. The ability to rotate slots with a reasonable amount of effort is on the list of things to do. Currently, the amount of effort required is greater than reasonable which is the major reason why documentation showing how to do this has not yet been written.

Thank you everyone for the replies, sorry I keep coming and going I've not been well but I am feeling much better. Yes OM I sort of guessed that or it would have been here, I thought it best to ask though in case someone had had as eureka moment. I should put a note in with the sofa concerning the slots, as it can be annoying to not know why the object are stuck. Thanks again all
