Re: App freezes and/or crashes in Mac OS.
Thanks for the information about your computer.

I tried to install old JAVA version as suggested on one of the forums and also tried to install a newest JAVA update from Oracle - none of this worked.
You could install any Java version, that won't make Sweet Home 3D Mac App Store version use it because this version comes with its own private Oracle Java version.
But since you installed Oracle Java version beside that, I would like you to run the two following tests if you don't mind:
- In the Online version, try to change the texture of an object. As the Online version will run Oracle Java version and the same Java 3D library as in the Mac App Store version, I would be curious to know if you encounter some problems here too.
- Try to open or save a file with the Java Web Start version (to run it, click on this link then double-click on the SweetHome3D.jnlp file you'll have downloaded). As the Java Web Start should run with Oracle Java version, if it still fails that would mean that there are problems in the management of sandboxed applications (i.e. Mac App Store programs). In that case, I would be curious to know if you have no problem to open / save files with other Mac App Store applications, if you have any (you could try with a free one if you don't have any other one).

Thanks for your help smile
