Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
The Beta 7 brings other fixes for some bugs I encountered with some round doors. It tries also to fix the 3D display of complex rooms that overlap each other. I still encountered some buggy files in the past months, and hope this time this bug will definitively belong to the past.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
Spent an hour doing different things with beta7 and beta8 - so far everything works perfectly (under 1.7.0_40, win 8).
Out of curiosity Are you planning to add the same automatic cut-out shape for staircases too? Not that it really matters as I guess adding the SVG cutout path is better anyway.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
Thanks for your tests and feedback.

I don't think I will, because in many cases the cut out shape in the upper level doesn't match the contour of the staircase seen from top.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
True enough. And why I needed to look at SVG cutouts in the first place - not cut more than needed, yet keep the legal hight definition staircaste step to ceiling (200cm here).
Thanks. As you were busy late, I wish you a good, restful lunch.

- Date format should be mm/dd/yyyy if English is selected in preferences whatever your country is. - Time format is a little different and depends on your country: it's AM/PM notation for 17 identified countries (among which USA of course) and 24h notation for the other countries.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
Thanks. And, yes, however, the time format is 24h in 4.0 but am/pm in 4.2.b8, but that, I suppose, could have to do with the Javastart. Anyway, minor detail.
ok
PS I think there is a EU standard for date and time formats - but the Brits probably have an exception - or just ignore the standard. Guess I should change to French interface... :-)

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
... for best performances, I set the doorOrWindowCutOutShape# property to this value for all existing doors and windows in Sweet Home 3D and its furniture libraries. No value would mean "compute the cut out shape from the 3D model", which would be a useless loss of computing time.
Good, just a word of warning should anyone else want to play with doorOrWindowCutOutShape#: It seems current FurnitureLibraryEditor will delete the new doorOrWindowCutOutShape# from models when a library is saved. So for now, I guess it is manual property editing in libraries :-)

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.2
The bug in the Furniture Library Editor is more subtle than that: the staircase cut out shape is reset to its default value when multiple models with a different shape are modified. When you edit only one model, it's ok. But anyway, it's fixed now (like many other small bugs I found in the Furniture Library Editor). I can send you a beta version if you want.
[Edit: Sorry, I should have read your message better since it spoke about the doorOrWindowCutOutShape# property, and not about staircaseCutOutShape# property. I was troubled by the fact I fixed a bug about the later one recently. As the doorOrWindowCutOutShape# property is new, it's not managed by the Furniture Library Editor, but the current beta version of the Editor does manage it]
