Greetings,
I dropped multiple crates on top of each oter and now when you look at them it looks like just one. When you mouse over it shows the different kinds as you move the mouse around, but I can't get radial menu to display the pick-up command. Any ideas?
Also, is there an easy way to get paintings up to eye level. The move up command works in seemingly micrometer increments. Am I missing something?
Thanks for reading. Any suggestions appreciated.

Well, found 1 answer in FAQ...
/move [ up | down ] x - moves the item x distance vertically
Still need help picking up crates though...if necessary, Id even be willing to destroy them so they dont take up space.

you need to use the move item command from the houses menu it should move the stacked items to you and you can pick them back up.

Try:
/move back
/move forward
To move the selected one abit away from the others
/move back
/move forward
To move the selected one abit away from the others
And you can also try /pickup

Regarding movement -- if you remember the old system for moving things around houses, you could move things in increments of 1 - 50. Now you can move them in increments of 1 - 500. Basically they took the old units of movement and divided them all into 10 bits.
Do a /move up 300 and see where that gets you.

If you are able to select the items then you can also try the /pickup command for the item targeted.

i have had to deal with this problem a lot, as i keep all my simmilar resources stacked together, for neatness purposes. I have created a macro that does the job very well, here is what it looks like:
/move up 400;
/pick;
Its very simple, but it gets the job done, you just click on the stack, and hit the macro, and it will pick the selected one up. Rinse and repeat
