Removing Items from Furniture Catalog With no disrespect to the developers of existing items in the furniture catalog, is there a way to delete from the list? I'm able to delete furniture that I've downloaded but not the existing ones. There are just too many that I will never use and at times, the list is overwhelming. Again, no disrespect to the creators of these items. Thank you |

Re: Removing Items from Furniture Catalog The furniture catalog can have three different types of furniture: 1 - default furniture that comes with the installation of the program 2 - individually imported furniture 3 - furniture from an imported furniture library You can't remove any of the default furniture (not without changing the source code). These come from the file Furniture.jar in the Sweet Home 3D install directory, not from a 'normal' furniture library. Individually imported furniture is recognizable by the cursive name in the catalog. You can right-click a piece of furniture and select delete from the context menu or press the delete key when the furniture item is selected, Furniture from a furniture library can only be deleted by deleting the furniture from the library and then importing the library again. You can use the Furniture Library Editor to do this. Keep in mind that if you change a third-party library your changes will be lost if you import an updated version of that library. To avoid that save your changes with a new library name and only import your renamed library. I agree that it is most inconvenient that the default installed furniture can't be removed from the catalog. In my opinion that default catalog should hold only a box, triangle, cylinder, and a sphere. All the other furniture should be in a normal furniture library that can be removed. ---------------------------------------- Dodecagon.nl 1300+ 3D models, manuals, and projects |

Re: Removing Items from Furniture Catalog You can't remove any of the default furniture (not without changing the source code). These come from the file Furniture.jar in the Sweet Home 3D install directory Partly true, but you can prevent the app from loading at startup.Under linux, delete this portion of the SweetHome3D file: "$PROGRAM_DIR"/lib/Furniture.jar:Sometimes I've modified the Furniture.jar file, mainly to reorganize the furniture category (adding, moving, renaming, etc.) The problem with updates persists in this case also. ---------------------------------------- A computer program does what you tell it to do, not what you want it to do.
