Re: Problem: Cannot access old Furniture data files
If you have many files that you want to import in a way that they appear in the catalog you have to import them through either "Import furniture" or "Import furniturelibrary" (for .sh3f files).

That can be a huge task if you have hundreds of "loose" model files.
But there is trick for that: Use the Furniture Library Editor.

You can select multiple obj/zip files in your filemanager and drag them in the Library Editor window: they will all be imported in the library in one drag&drop. Save the library with a fitting name and you now have a .sh3f file that only requires a single "Import furniturelibrary" in Sweet Home 3D.

If you're smart you create multiple library files with a logical organization of your models. In the FLE you can select multiple models and modify them all at the same time: a good way to set the different categories for your models.
