Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Few advises: 1. When you make staircase in real life watch your head! That's why: Look at the head of man (184.5cm tall) Unfortunately I've see this in real life.
staircaseCutOutShape#1= M0,0 v0.645 h0.5 v-0.382 h0.5 v-0.258 z
The second:
staircaseCutOutShape#1= M0,0 v0.789 h0.5 v-0.532 h0.5 v-0.258 z
2.For a precise cut out you have to make some calculations - the red lines represent cut out - to calculate you need to divide the needed dimension to total dimension (vertically or horizontally) For second cut out to find first v0.789 I do 300/380 and so on.
3. When use Furniture Editor and modify a furniture move the preview a little until the program take a new shoot. In this way you avoid the dark background.
5. In future you will have to learn how to make round corners. Good luck

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Really appreciate the work you've done on this and I understand about stair heights, but the file you created when imported into my version of SH3D it still does not create an L-shaped opening, just the usual rectangular opening. If the L-shaped opening works for you, then the file is fine and it must, therefore be either: * SH3D program (v6.5 on Linux) has a bug * I'm doing something wrong with the furniture import (I choose "Staircase")

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
I can confirm, that the staircase posted by dorin does not cut a L-shaped opening (SH3D 6.5 - Ubuntu 20.04). But the L-shaped staircases from the library do exactly what they should do - a L-shaped opening.

Why? 1. I use only linux (pure debian). 2. The file I've send is a sh3f file not only a simple furniture so you don't need to chose the category. Menu -> Furniture -> Import furniture library... (Is next afterImport furniture...) All you need is to import furniture library not only the object. I don't find any other reason to don't work. Try!

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
@hansmex You're rigth but in this particular case is not my model. All I've do was to modify the library made by gr1nch and was destined to him. It was a test file and I don't want to sine others work.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released

Why?
Because this is what humans intuitively do! I want to import ONE piece of furniture, so I choosed "import furniture". This is totally logical behavior (it seems gr1nch did the same)!
But you're right, I should have known that a library can also have only one piece in it. I should have known as an experienced user that the .sh3f file should be imported via "import furniture library". But even my experience did not overdrive my intuitively behavior.
So, let's say this is not really a bug but a week point of SH3D. Or a point for the "to do list"...

@Birdy You're also right BUT was my fault to don't be more specific when I post my reply; I've induce error!!

Well, make a proposal. Is not very intuitive but for me is enough. Anyway, could be improve with our contribution.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Guys, that was it! Importing the file as a Library worked. I removed all previous related articles and libraries, before I did so. Now a lovely L-shaped hole in the floor. Bit odd that I can't get rid of a strip of carpet where the stairs touch the wall (despite the lower wall being raised higher than necessary and the stairs moved as close to the wall as permitted). I'm happy with the result though and look forward to getting this into my Home Assistant (automation) set up.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Hello, I have a problem with the editor, it's like it's stuck or something whenever I change anything so if I choose a different language or try to adjust the column width the top and the toolbar will be stuck. The actual rows will change with scrolling to the new view but I can't change the top with anything, I tried resizing the window and minimizing/maximizing (that just ended me up with all being black)
This is how it looks, you can see where I haven't scrolled yet (starting at line 13)
I have win 10, 64-bit, latest java update and latest version of this 1,27 although the older versions show the same problem. It used to work fine for me about a year ago (I didn't need it again till now)
Is this a program bug or something on my end? Also, offtopic, is there any program to edit these furniture libraries in some kind of texteditor, like html with it all being just code?
