Re: Start Point
An interior wall is a partition, and has two sides. But they are not 'inside' and 'outside'. An exterior wall has an outside and an inside. Totally different animals.

One may be able to create a floorplan, but still pretty worthless for construction purposes. And it is difficult to use because of the lack of snap-to-grid and its odd misalignment with the given grid.

Thank you for explaining where we stand with this software. And good to know it is so specialized. But it gets even more confusing as people add more things for it to do, but that will never make it very good for those other things.

A simple version of something like AutoCAD is what is needed, and such is used for architectural purposes, but so much more. And that type of software already does what SweetHome does. It is then reasonable to ask "Why learn multiple programs?". Modern users simply need a replacement for the existing non-intuitive programs out there.

Maybe one day.
