Trick to hanging paintings?

Post by violator »

Is there some kind of trick to this, as sometimes it seems easy enough, and other times I cannot seem to get them to stick. I have a tower for example, and I can hang a painting in one of the larger rooms, but if I try to hang a painting (the same one even) in the identical spot in the other large room, no dice. I have a large painting that I cannot seem to hang anywhere in the tower, but I previously had it on the back wall of a small without an issue...

It looks like others have managed to hang these wherever they want, so just wondering if there is a trick to it?

I've noticed the best way to do these types of things is to record a macro of dropping an item in a certain direction.

Then you pick up the item, hit your hotkey to do that macro and voila its in the right spot.

it will tell you how it drop relatives to how it looks
its a great tool to learn how certain objects behave when moving them around
