Or is it?
How the hell do you grab items placed in cabinets in build mode/ or clone them so I can fill new cabinets. Would be nice to actually clone them with contents included lol. I can't seem to grab anything inside a cabinet to place elsewhere, the tool just grabs the entire cabinet or clones that cabinet, empty. I seem to remember doing this once in ages past but who knows. Prolly thinking of Sims 4

You are talking about something that essentially functions primarily as a display/surface and not storage, correct? If that's the case, putting the entire thing into family inventory will separate out all the individual parts which would then be available to be placed somewhere and cloned. Of course this would make it so you have to redo the original object as well.

Yeah that won't help duplicating haha. But it helps in getting the actual objects when they are so difficult to find in the object menu. I ended up zooming in super close till the camera was inside the case and cloning the object from there. So strange EA missed this simple task (selecting objects inside cabinets) to inc in build mode. Also adding an object to a collection when already placed seems to be missing as well. Thanks!
