Re: Doesn't launch anymore in Ubuntu 17.10
In your personal folder in .local/share/applications create new file named SweetHome3D.desktop.
Copy the following content into it:
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Sweet Home 3D
GenericName=Interior 2D design application with 3D preview
GenericName[de]=Innenraumplaner
Comment=Interior design Java application for quickly choosing and placing furniture on a house 2D plan drawn by the end-user with a 3D preview
Path=/path/to/SweetHome3D-6.1.2
Exec=sh -c "/path/to/SweetHome3D-6.1.2/SweetHome3D-Java3D-1_5_2" %U
Icon=/path/to/SweetHome3D-6.1.2/SweetHome3DIcon.png
StartupNotify=true
StartupWMClass=com-eteks-sweethome3d-SweetHome3D
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=SweetHome3D;2DGraphics;3DGraphics;Graphics;
Keywords=interior;design;2D;3D;home;house;furniture;java;
MimeType=application/sweethome3d;


Edit "/path/to/SweetHome3D-6.1.2" to the location where your SH3D is.
At the "Exec"-section you can try the other start script too.

This will start SH3D via the terminal.
