Can't use eyedropper tool on half wall trims

Ever since half walls were introduced, this bug has been there. It was fixed maybe once a few years ago and it came back in the next update. 

Why does everytime I use eyedropper tool (e shortcut) on half wall trims it doesn't work. 

In video bellow you can see me trying. I don't have any filters on, no mods, no nothing.

  • Hi, this issue was listed up in July 1, 2025 update. Now it works fine.
    Sorry, I found it while sorting through my data...

    Edit:
    Just in case, I checked this issue.
    The half-wall trims that chose with eyedropper tool was able to use to other half-wall, but the result of half-wall trims didn't show up. This issue is about displaying result.
    I'm sorry I mistakenly thought that the eyedropper tool's behavior had been completely fixed because it can actually use.

    I often can’t get the eyedropper tool to work on wall trims, but only sometimes. Just now when I tried to copy a wall trim on the third floor of my building the game said “nothing here can be cloned”, but when I tried on a half wall on the second floor it worked fine, and now it’s working on the third floor again.

    The Eyedropper tool will now display Half Wall Trims in the Build Mode catalog when used on Half Wall Trims.
