Objects and Rugs

Is it allowed to to place objects on rugs ?

Of course it's allowed to place furniture on rugs. Only make sure that the legs are on the rug.
When two legs are on the rug (for example a table) and two are not. It means two legs are floating. That can't be.

In the case that an object bleeds into the rug (screenshot) for example a chest. You can move or resize ("S") the rug.

If you are more experienced or feel comfortable doing so, look at the advise Razorwing gave.

.....that if you set your movement speed really low, like 0.10, you can sink some rugs slightly into the floor without it looking bad, and so you could have two table legs colliding with the rug and two not colliding (and all four legs firmly on the floor) without any glitches. Also, some rugs like for instance LowerClassRug01 are just simple planes without any height at all, and they don't collide with anything if they're firmly situated on the floor.

The link is referring to a screenshot made by Razorwing. It shows an example of placing two legs on the rug.

Example

EDIT

You can also rotate the table. Two legs on the rug and two floating above the floor. Lower the two floating legs until these hit the floor (X or Y rotation depending on the placement of the table).

Thanks "HeIsTheDarkness ", for this idea.
