Re: Select Hide Utility plug-in Hi Dorin, I saw you mention this plugin in another thread and thought "Oh. That sounds useful as I try to deconstruct my plans to try and produce acceptable planning drawings. Unfortunately it does not work for me, although it might just be me. Plugin installed, show an Edit menu item and a tool bar item, but clicking either one does nothing. No error message either. Just nothing. I don't have the conflicting plugin the text mentions, and I'm running latest (7.0j) Have you tested it with 7.0? |

Re: Select Hide Utility plug-in I just tested the last version and it doesn't work when there is no level in the home, with the following exception: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "com.eteks.sweethome3d.model.Level.isViewableAndVisible()" because the return value of "utility.SelectHidePlugin.access$6(utility.SelectHidePlugin)" is nullDorin, I hope this will help you to fix this bug. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Select Hide Utility plug-in Thanks Emmanuel. I never even thought to test with a real file. I was just trying to check the plugin out on an new file with a few bits and bobs and never thought to add levels. |

Re: Select Hide Utility plug-in Hey All Select & Hide Plugin v1.7 is now posted on sourceforge The Select & Hide plugin adds powerful selection, visibility, and hide/show controls to Sweet Home 3D. Selection Tools Select Walls Select Rooms Select Dimension Lines Select Labels / Text Select Lines / Arrows Select Doors Select Windows Select Stairs Select Lights / Lamps Select Other Furniture Select Multi-point Polylines Invert Selection Option to apply selection to all levels or only the current level Select furniture by name or description Multiple search terms can be entered for more precise matching The selection system also handles furniture groups and their child objects while preserving level information. Hide / Show Tools Objects can be hidden by category: Walls Rooms Dimension Lines Labels / Text Lines / Arrows Doors Windows Stairs Lights Other Furniture Multi-point Polylines Additional actions include: Hide All Selected Show All Hidden Hide furniture by name or description Apply operations to all levels or only the current level Smart Text Search Furniture can be found using text entered in the input field. Searches are performed against both the furniture name and description, with multiple words supported. Level-Aware Operation Selection and visibility operations can be restricted to the currently selected level, or applied across all levels. This makes the plugin particularly useful for multi-story projects. Safe Hide / Restore Hidden walls retain their wall-joining information so that restoring them can reconnect the original wall relationships. Polylines are also restored in their original order. Undo / Redo Hide and show operations are integrated with Sweet Home 3D's Undo / Redo system, allowing visibility changes to be reversed and reapplied. User Interface The plugin provides a dedicated dialog with two tabs: Select Category selection Select all levels Invert selection Text input Hide / Show Category-based hide controls Hide selected Show hidden Text-based hide/search The plugin also supports a modern FlatLaf interface when available. Highlights A fast and flexible way to: Select large groups of objects Hide unwanted objects while editing Work efficiently with multi-level homes Find furniture by name or description Temporarily simplify complex floor plans Restore hidden objects without losing important wall/polyline relationships Undo and redo visibility operations https://sourceforge.net/p/sweethome3d/plug-ins/23/#f142 ---------------------------------------- Windows 64bit | Intel i7 | 8GB Ram | SH3D 7.5 + Plugins |

Re: Select Hide Utility plug-in New version 1.7 and on Source Forge . Also, on PluginManager - improve the LaF of tabs under macOS - add translation files for all available languages with Claude AI help - fix a bug that occurs when selecting items from furniture groups - improving the identification of doors based on their elevation, in accordance with the DIN EN 17210 standard (< 20mm) Let me remind you of the purpose of this plugin: It is designed to improve SH3D’s functionality regarding item selection. It selects only the items that belong to the selected level. Why? We often see elements on the current level that belong to lower levels. Selecting them separately becomes difficult and can also lead to unintended selections. Also, sometimes we want to select only certain items for deletion or copying. This plugin is designed to help with that. You'll find it under the “Edit” menu and as an icon (green with an “S” on it) in the toolbar.
