Re: Feat. Req: Editing position and measurements of rooms numerically
True. But it does not seem to work for me ;-(
I've tried everything -- double-clicking, even copying to the plugins folder.
It "installs", opens Sweet Home, I get the message that plugin will be available from next time SH3D is opened. But, the next time, there's no item in the menu.
Any suggestions would be welcome. Like landro, I've been hoping for these features too.

Re: Feat. Req: Editing position and measurements of rooms numerically
I developed the plugin using Java 1.6 and SH3D 2.6, maybe you are using earlier versions? You could start SH3D in console mode, to see any errors printed there.

Thanks for the reply.
I am using SH3D 2.6 (w. included Java) on Win XP. But it could be that my installation has somehow become corrupt - as I'm facing problems with other plugins too.

Re: Feat. Req: Editing position and measurements of rooms numerically
Well I reinstalled SH3D v2.6. But still with the same problems. Considering that others have got this working (on XP? Linux?), I really can't see why it is not work for me!!
How do I run it in console mode ;-( "java -jar SweetHome3d.jar" gives "Invalid or corrupt jarfile SweetHome3d.jar"

The "java -jar" command can work only with the executable jar file available here.

Thanks :-) I'll try it out as soon as I get the time.
Is "java -jar SweetHome3d-2.6.jar" the correct command? I searched in the user manual and the faq but could not find anything. I'm sure I'd seen the instructions somewhere !?!

Re: Feat. Req: Editing position and measurements of rooms numerically
The command is correct, but you need a normal JRE or JDK, as the one that comes with SH3D has no "java.exe", only a "javaw.exe" which will suppress the console output.
You could also use the following commands from the SH3D root directory to start your current installation (JAVA_HOME is the path to your normal JRE):
set path=%PATH%;%CD%\lib %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe -Xmx512m -cp "%JAVA_HOME%\lib\javaws.jar;lib\*" com.eteks.sweethome3d.SweetHome3D

Re: Feat. Req: Editing position and measurements of rooms numerically
I do have Java 6 installed - probably with OpenOffice. I'm currently downloading the sh3d.jar posted by Puybaret -- but my downloading speed is slow, and I'm a bit busy with RL (real life) so it'll probably have to wait for some time.
