Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Bug concerning imported object names.
When importing multiple obejcts from a series with multi-select the names are not imported as they should. If have several objects named fence01.obj, fence02.obj, etc. When I select multiple of these they are all imported with the same name 'fence0'. Thinking removing the '0' would solve this I was disappointed that it resulted in multiple objects named 'fence'. So I tried to import them one-by-one. This made no difference and the names are still abbreviated when imported. Switching the preference setting for the model name also doesn't make any difference.
So I investigated further. Opening the zipped library showed that all objects did have the correct name and each had an icon named accordingly. Importing the Library in Sweethome3D also showed the correct names in the furniture list.
Conclusion: it's only the display in the Furniture Library Editor listview that shows a shortend name. I didn't test any other names but it looks like the last character is always lost.

I just noticed the latest version 1.30 and installed that but the same name problem is still occurring.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
It’s not not a bug. The trailing digit is removed on purpose when the Editor tries to compute a more readable name of the imported model. Maybe, it should be an option in preferences. Meanwhile add another character to your file name if you want to keep the last digit. Note also that hyphens and underscores in the model file name are replaced by spaces.

That explains why importing "Staircase 400 U.obj", "Staircase 400 L.obj", and "Staircase 400 Z.obj" do keep the correct name.
The hyphen has another problem: replacing with a space is not a problem in itself although I would prefer that it was retained. When investigating I also tried "fence-1.obj", "fence-2.obj", etc. but ofcourse that also resulted in multiple objects named "fence". Adding an extra character after the number would be illogical in the case of a numbered series of objects.
A preference to retain the full object (file)name would be very welcome. Some objects are in series by number and retaining the name when importing avoids the hassle to properly name them when you suddenly find yourself with multiple different objects with the same name in your list.
If you get to implementing this preference please also add a preference a different default directory for libraries. After every restart of the editor I have to click through a long path to get to my directory with furniture libraries. Starting every time in the users home directory is fine as long as no other path is set but extremely frustating if you have a different drive and directory for your libraries.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Importing a furniture on a 4k screen will create an incorrect icon, seems the icon picture/screenshot is taken from a region above left of the library editor window, same happens if moving the icon the editor. This does not happen on a non 4k screen

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
After I tried using this tool, I re-imported a couple of the edited furniture libraries. SH replaced the deleted items with a big red X and then crashed. It will no longer open. I've uninstalled, reinstalled the latest version, installed version 6, and still nothing. Using on Windows 10. Is there some glitch I'm missing? Do ".JAR" files open with Sweet Home or with Java as a default? Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Suggestions?

Edit to previous post. Here's the error log I get:

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
You shouldn’t edit the libraries stored in private folders of Sweet Home 3D while you use Sweet Home 3D itself. I wonder if it was your case.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
It wasn't but that's okay for now. I had to set my computer back to factory in order to reinstall SH3D and have it work. Going to be far more careful from here on out.

Re: Furniture Library Editor released
Awesome, tool.
I would be forever greatful if you would add a direct or batch import from a website like 3dwarehouse.
It would be so nice to not have to download each model, unzip it, and import it individually.
When building a custom model library you may need hundreds of models and cutting all these steps out of the process would make it so much easier.
I was thinking maybe a search box, and the results have a thumbnail with hover to expand, a short description, and a checkbox to mark items you want to import.
This would speed up library creation greatly, and I believe would be well worth the effort.
Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
