As many of you may know, the toolbar from ROBLOX Studio no longer shows up in Build mode. It's becoming extremely frustrating to me due to the fact that that is the only way I build - and I'm sure it is to others too. Admins, please do something about this! This glitch has ruined building for a lot of people, and is becoming a serious pain! If you're having this problem, please bump this post. There are a lot of people that have tried to get the admins to notice this, and it apparently hasn't worked yet. Better yet, if you have a solution, let everyone know!
Help us out, ROBLOX! |

Use Edit mode. I find it so much easier to build with. - You don't have to deal with gravity, you can hang parts in the air because time is paused. - No Stamper tools on the bottom of your screen. - No having your character in the way when you build. - You can fly the camera up with q and down with e. - If you have to work on the other side of a structure or mountain you can fly through it with the camera instead of walking around it (and facing the glitches I've heard complaints about because Studio may freeze if you die).
If you have to have your character when you build with the Studio tools go to Test > Play solo. The only time I do this other than to test what I built is to see how my Robloxian fits into what I've made, but I know how big a Robloxian is so it is rarely an issue. |

There are cases where Studio Mode can do certain parts of building where Build Mode cannot, and Studio does save time.
However, except for this, I find Studio sometimes annoying as I'm not used to the way it works, and thus usually use Build Mode on Studio.
Build Mode on studio allows more precise CFraming and testing. Certain tools can be applied to Build Mode whereas they cannot on Studio, e.g. the old Delete Tool can be found on Free Models, and that helps when there is need to delete only one brick in a hundred-brick model. For this, I use Build Mode, and up until recently I have found it useful and an excellent way to build.
However, until recently, I have found this irritating problem that is causing me to build less frequently and with less quality. I too am having this problem, and I hope that Studio 2.0 may be able to solve it, if not the moderators may before its release. I assume it's not a glitch, simply that developers have inserted this to tackle the recent exploits problem (though this is only an assumption) |

How is Build mode CFraming more precise than Edit mode? Edit mode CFraming using Command Bar can get you down to .0001 stud measurements and degrees of rotation. Also try selecting the brick in the model using Explorer and hit Del. |

| I've built all my places in Build Mode since 2008, and I didn't like Edit Mode so much so I try to avoid it. Now that the studio bar isnt visible in Build Mode is frustrating and forces me to use Edit. They really need to fix this problem.. |

I first used Build mode until I put a hidden hole in the floor of my Happy Home in Robloxia. Trying to build a 3 story hidden bunker through a 8 stud wide hole in the floor drove me nuts and killed me about 40 times when I kept falling, until I found Edit mode! No gravity, no death, no problems! |

"If you have to work on the other side of a structure or mountain you can fly through it with the camera instead of walking around it (and facing the glitches I've heard complaints about because Studio may freeze if you die)."
Build mode allows teleportation, and fun ways to see your character fail. |

| Well, I'm sure the Admins will fix it soon, since I'm almost certain everybody is having this problem. If not, most of them. Maybe even the admins are having diffculty if one of them decided to build, who knows? |

| Even if you guys still use Edit, we need Build Mode to go back to normal. |

You can get to even lower increments without command bar... And I can't use the tools I normally use with Edit mode. |

@ Macmillan, I CFrame in Edit all the time, with Command Bar and CmdUtl tool (by Anaminus).
@ Jakemate97, you can go to the lower increments with Command Bar too, but it is VERY hard to distinguish anything lower than .0001 stud. |

| It seems like no one is using the link I provided above. Here's the solution. Go on edit mode. Then click tools>Test>Play Solo. It should work then but remember that after you save in Play solo don't save in edit or you'll lose what ever you did. |

| I find it easier to make things more precise in build mode as the camera in edit doesn't stay zoomed in as it should. It's all personal preferences, and I for one find it easier to build in build mode with the studio bar. Anaminus's CmdUtl can be used in build mode as well. |

@pengcheng1: Thanks for that tip, it does help. I still hope that the build mode glitch comes to the admins' attention, as it's a bit more convenient.
The main purpose that I posted this was to bring it to the admins' attention so it can be patched. It seems like the more posts, the more likely it is to be noticed - So bump this up everybody!

| I don't think it's a glitch, it's the mods trying to make us use stamper. |
