Change The Categories in the Menu

So I would like to rename or change the "Category" names that in the descriptions when modifying furniture or when using the furniture editor. Is there a way I can delete a couple of the existing categories and rename a few others? Thanks.

Re: Change The Categories in the Menu

You can change categories only for individually imported furniture or with the Furniture Library Editor for furniture libraries. The FAQ How can I create a new category of furniture? will have you give a hint.

Re: Change The Categories in the Menu

So just for clarification I cannot delete a category completely from the drop down menu? I know how to import furniture and make a category for that library, but the issue is when I open a different library, that category is gone and the default categories are the only things showing.

Re: Change The Categories in the Menu

In the Furniture Library Editor, there are 12 default categories at the moment and you can’t delete them. But Sweet Home 3D behaves differently: only categories containing at least one item will appear in the Category drop down list. So if you created a new category while importing a piece of furniture, but then delete the imported piece, the new category won’t appear anymore.

Re: Change The Categories in the Menu

Yea I understand that the category will show in the menu if a piece of furniture is in the library under that category name. Would be nice to eventually delete the base categories that I do not use. Ive deleted the original furniture and then added the furniture I want, but I still have categories in the menu that aren't associated with any of the furniture.

Re: Change The Categories in the Menu

Sorry, I don't think I'll add the option to remove the 12 default categories from the Furniture Library Editor. It's just a side tool and not that important.
