yea, I bought that skingard manor house, and finally got enough doe to buy all the furnishings. Now how do I put stuff on the bookshelves and into the display cases. I know how to do it with cupboards and such, by swapping out of my inventory, but I can't seem to do it that way with bookshelves and display cases. I tried just dropping the stuff... haha that doesn't work. I just don't see the point of it unless there's a way to do it. Thanks for any help

well, if you have enough magicka, and enough money, you can buy a Telekinesis spell. or, you can use cheats. Put these cheats in: press ~(tilde) then type TGM and press enter. then press PSB and press enter again. now you have god mode and all spells. then just search in your spell book for the Telekinesis spell and then you can easily place things where you want them.

OR...you can just hold Z on the item! you dont have to resort to cheats (says me, on this site!)

hehe

HOLD Z ON THE ITEM?!?!?! What are you talking about???

First of all, calm down, caps and multiple question and exclaimation marks doesnt help, and just makes you look like a fool.

In the PC version, if an item is on the ground - or in a case, or on a table, etc - you can hover over it till the target cusor turns to a hand, then hold down the Z key, and you 'grab' the item, and can move it around at will.

The key is to grab the item near the middle, or it will swing all over the place, this can be good for small tweaks though.

I assume there is a similar key in the Xbox version
