Is there a way to search a build/lot for specific pack items/objects?

Is there a way to search a build/lot for specific pack items/objects?

I just finished building a lot intending to only use basegame content (I tried to faithfully use the in-game filter) and when I uploaded the lot to the gallery it told me (afterward; grrr!) that there was an item in the build/lot from Get Together. Is there an easier way to determine which item is the culprit than to select every item to try to determine its origin?

    while in gallery click the pack icon under the build it should hopefully show you which item is in that build

    though its glitchy sometimes

    or you could search by pack in catalog while in build mode and see if there is any items you used in that packs catalog but its about as annoying and time consuming as clicking every object on lot

    Go to the item in your Library/the Gallery. Click the pack icon:

    Click the "Show used items" button on the right:

    This displays the used items from the selected pack.

    This is handy when downloading lots too, as you can see which things will be replaced.

    Okay, now I am REALLY stumped! It's showing me a wall covering that I ABSOLUTELY did NOT use... (and it's a very small house so it's not like it's gotten lost in a big build)

    Maybe paint all the walls a different colour and repaint them?

    I guess I'll have to try that as I have scoured and scoured the lot and cannot find that wall covering.

    Also check pool walls & basements (inside and out) and inside of chimneys, closets, columns etc made from walls.

    Half walls count too, so check those and any you used around platforms.

    I removed all wall coverings on the entire lot and it's still telling me that I have used a wall covering from Get Together... :(

    I didn't use any pool walls or water, didn't do a basement, didn't use chimneys or columns, nor did I use any half walls. LOL

    it may be just glitched again
    tho id check extra hard if you have big windows you might have it under window or something happened to me sometimes
