Re: SH3D on Raspberry pi 4 - problems with GUI
1. Puybaret, I did it through the terminal by typing "sudo apt install sweethome3d". As far as I know you can also do it in the "Add/Remove software" app. It seems that it's a proper distribution for an ARM processor.

2. UbuntuBirdy, thanks for the help!

3. I think that the problem is Java distribution. I was able to test it on Raspi 3 and it runs perfectly. The only difference I've noticed was Java version. Raspi 3 uses Java 8 while Raspi 4 uses Java 11. As of now I was not able to force Raspi 4 to use Java 8 for SH3D. Even when I had only Java 8 on my Raspi, downloading SH3D forced me to also download and install Java 11. Morover, when I set Java 8 as default, SH3D still used Java 11. Uninstalling Java 11 also uninstalls SH3D.

If that's helpfull, I'd be grateful for any further advice.
