Neither ctrl-alt-K nor ctrl-alt-+ works for me. However, the Decrease size shortcut ctrl-shift-alt-K works fine (though ctrl-alt-- does not). The menu selection works fine, but is tedious for multiple increases.

I am documenting a 50' x 100' recreation hall in our campground. Then in the future we can move tables and chairs in different locations and have documentation. There is a 28'W x 18'D x 28"H stage at the front of the hall. I tried adding 28" walls but could not figure out how to put a floor on them. ... llstiles https://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,14911 2026-07-22T15:42:18+02:00 2026-07-23T07:24:49+02:00 With no disrespect to the developers of existing items in the furniture catalog, is there a way to delete from the list? I'm able to delete furniture that I've downloaded but not the existing ones. There are just too many that I will never use and at times, the list is overwhelming. Again, no disrespect to the creators of these items.

I can only figure out how to rotate the view. Strafe is probably not the right word, but I'm thinking 3D FPS games... craigBrill https://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,14887 2026-07-05T11:02:18+02:00 2026-07-05T11:45:52+02:00 This has happened to me after a Manjaro Linux update. The four panes/views are positioned differently what they used to be. What was at the top is at the bottom, what was on the left is on the right. I've tried and reinstalled SweetHome3D but it didn't help. Note the same version which I downloaded from the SweetHome3D site and run as a script from terminal is fine. jz77f https://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,10181 2020-04-29T17:13:04+02:00 2026-06-26T16:08:54+02:00 Hi, i´m new here but i didn´t found anything in the Forum.

But as a beginner, I'm stuck on a very simple question: How do I make the lamps in the Furniture Library light up? I've created a nice apartment, including furniture, and everything looks great. But then I tried adding various lamps to my project and setting the light to 50% (lower right edge in the ... ahari https://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,14848 2026-06-05T15:11:14+02:00 2026-06-06T12:57:53+02:00 How can I use multiple drawing layers to separate different parts of a plan of one room?

I can't seem to do this anymore, but I can't recall when the behavior changed. Is there any way to accomplish this or something similar in 7.1? I have several versions of a design that ...

I found a post from rcheng in 2014 on this subject and Hans Dirkse gave the solution by means of a link. But the link is broken. I tried to reply on the original post, but it does'nt work either.

I'm looking for 2 things, and have trouble finding them: 1. a simple glass panel which allows me the flexibility to resize in anyway I want. 2. a sliding door that is simply glass with no door frame.

I've been using SweetHome3D for well over a year on Arch Linux. Recently, I started up the application and all the panels on the UI were swapped: The furniture selector and furniture list are now on the right, with the furniture list on top and furniture selector on bottom. The 2d drawing and 3d rendering on the ... dpengel3 https://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,14816 2026-05-17T08:28:00+02:00 2026-05-17T08:28:00+02:00 Does anyone have any advice on how to add a transom window over a door? farmboy
