Re: Furniture Library Editor released
I'm having some issues with the Furniture Library Editor (Mac OS 10.11.6 and Java 1.8). Here's what I did:
1. Launched the editor. 2. Opened the Contributions library. 3. Changed the categories of some of the models, specifying new category names. 4. Tried to save the modified library, but got an error message that the library couldn't be saved. 5. Changed the name of the file and tried to save it to my desktop instead, which worked. 6. Launched SH3D and imported the modified library. However, while all my newly created categories appeared in the list, most did not contain the models I'd specified.
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong or even if I'm doing something wrong. Perhaps someone could walk me through the steps? Or point me to some instructions or a tutorial? Thank you in advance!

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Hi Thanks for a great editor. At last i can get some order in my library :) I have one problem though, i cant open the furniture library, i get a message about that it's not a valid SH3F file, i also get that when the file i exported (all imported objects). I don't know if it, for some reason above my knowledge, is supposed to be like this.
If it's not, it could be my fault as i, in a dark moment, added a folder with a swedish letter ( ö ), can it be that? Especialy that folder creates a problem as the last of the objects in that can't be moved or deleted.
This is just giving the usual rectangular hole. I've followed the instructions in the PDF - is there something that is missing there or out of date?
I've also tested with L code, e.g. M0,0 L0.5,0 L0.5,0.3 L0.3,0.3 L0.3,1.0 L0,1.0 L0,0 which works just fine in an SVG file, but again, not in an SH3D file. Any ideas?

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
I just tried both shapes under Ubuntu 18 and macOS 10.14 and they worked as expected. Did you try with Sweet Home 3D version available at SourceForge.net?

That's encouraging, so I spent another hour trying everything possible to produce an L-shaped hole in the ceiling for my staircase - without success. I've tried VH encoding, L encoding, my required measurements, the example measurements and a simplified rectangular hole - all to no effect. Always, the ceiling hole is the full rectangular base dimensions. It is not possible to make it smaller. The SVG encoding seems fine. It looks like a bug at the moment. Maybe because the design file is too big? I'm at a loss to explain this lack of custom hole ability.
I'm using the latest version of SH3D, i.e. 6.5 and I've looked inside the SH3F zip file and the SVG line is preserved as expected.
Can you see if you can make an L-shaped hole in this SH3D file with this SH3F staircase?
