Furniture is shown as black boxes in 2D view
I have used SH3D without problems on my computer running Fedora 16.
Yesterday I upgraded to Fedora 18 (64bit) and now, when I choose to show the top view of the furniture in the plan, I only get black boxes.
Using the option to show the catalog icons works fine. making a photo of the furniture is also ok.
This happens with both the portable version 4 of SH3D as with the normal version.

As it happened since you upgraded Fedora, It's probably a bug in the graphics card driver. Does the create photo tool work at the lowest quality level?

Hm, before posting I only tried at the highest quality level...
I ran a test and indeed it does not work at the two lowest quality levels sad

This means that the graphics card driver doesn't support computing offscreen images.
Hope Fedora team will be able to help you...

Re: Furniture is shown as black boxes in 2D view
After your reply I noticed several driver errors in the logs...
I replaced the driver with another one and that one seems to work OK!
Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.
