I see people stacking crates, individual pieces of cloth, etc... How is this done?

One easy way is razor macro ... converting the drop location to relative location .. Also you can stack stuff by setting it down just right so that you don't drop it on to the item and have it stack rather release it on the same tile it is on but were the image is not ..

That is the problem I am running into. I try to stack crates for example, and they just go inside the bottom most crate.

It is tricky .. use first way i said .. record your self dropping a create .. stop convert the drop location to relative location .. and also the item id to by type...

Awesome! I have the hang of this. Now if I could get my $#@&ing paintings to hang up on the wall I would be all set.

Thanks!

I believe you can make a similiar macro for paintings as well.

Locking down a crate will not help in this matter ..

Actually I stacked two rows of two or three crates next to each other and against a wall. After that, I stacked the painting or portrait on top of the crates, locked it down, and then removed the crates. Works pretty good. Just have to use a different number of crates depending on whether it is a painting or portrait, because if you stack the painting too high, you can see the corner of it through the next floor.

I hope this helps anyone else who has had the same issues.
