Re: AdvancedEditingPlugin - Edit room plan dialog blank
Hi

Finally had a chance to have a look at this.

I re-visited the initial thread I found and realised it does indeed give the solution to the problem. Clearly I did not read it properly the first time.

It seems sweethome3d comes with and uses a local version of jre (for some reason I thought it used the systems version). The plugin does not work with the version sweethome3d comes with (jre1.6.0_45).

As mentioned in that thread downloading a later version of jre (I downloaded jre1.8.0_77), installing it in the SweetHome3D-x.y directory and setting jre1.6.0_45 to point to that version fixes the problem.

Does anyone know how I can find out where sweehome3d decides where it gets jrel from ? Can this be specified using env variables or is hard coded in the source somewhere ?
