Model icons in Furniture Library Editor are black squares
Hello,
I am trying to create a furniture library with Furniture Library Editor.
The problem I have is that after importing a model to a library (downloaded for example from this page https://sweethome3d.com/freeModels.jsp), it does not have an icon. Instead a black square is shown.
After saving the library to a sh3f file and then extracting it, the png file which I suppose should be an icon is a black square. If I add say 50 models to the library, save it and then extract, I will have 50 identical png files with exact same content (black square), and the only difference will be the name reflecting the name of the model.
I am new to this great application so I do not know if I should provide the icon for the model, or it should be auto generated by the Editor.

Re: Model icons in Furniture Library Editor are black squares
I have (had) a similar problem, where the image of imported models in the furniture catalogue was a black square or a black inverted L.
The solution for me is to select the model in the catalogue list, sselect Modify Furniture and then slightly rotate the preview image. I then click through the rest of the dialogue (Continue and Finish) and there appears a new preview image without the black square.

I've had the same problem and just moving the image a little works in both the furniture library editor as well as in Sweethome3D when importing/changing an object.
