Furniture icons in plan
Today, I purchased Sweet Home from Amazon. During creation of my first home, all added furniture icons were shown as "top view" (2d). After closing my file, and then reopening to edit, furniture icons are now shown as "catalog icons". In the tools window, the "Furniture icons in plan" tool is shown as "top view" selected, but both selections are greyed out (not operable).

How can I get furniture icons back to being shown in top view (2d).

Thanks,
Ken Blake

PS: Thank you for developing and making available this terrific application.

Very strange issue! It looks like your video card or its driver are "tired" and are unable to provide all their features.
Did you try to reboot your computer?

I rebooted. Problem is solved. I should have thought of that myself. Thanks for your help.

Re: Furniture icons in plan
I am now back to being unable to display furniture in top view. Reboot does not resolve the issue. I have looked on SW website for minimum system requirements for successful operation of the application but cannot find same. My system:

eMachines model ET1831
Windows 7 Home Premium
Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5400 @2.70GHz
4 GB RAM
64-bit
Nvidia on-board GeForce 7100/nForce 630i graphics

Does my system meet requirements for successful operation of Sweet Home?

Thanks,
