Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.0
Everything is working fine in this version 5.0. But when are you planning to launch the downloadable version 5.0 of SH3D. Waiting for the same eagerly.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.0
Maz, your bug is really strange. I can't reproduce it and I can't see any reason why older files should behave differently. Please, send me a small file that will help me to reproduce and fix this bug.
Santanu, don't expect the final version 5.0 before weeks. I didn't finish to program the features I want to add, and from past experience, the translation period generally requires at least 2 weeks.

OPENING PROBLEMS
Doors open outwards have a problem
Maybe I do not get the point, but now I have tried with numerous doors and windows. Catalogue ones and different models where I specified the door properties (sash, svg, etc). As far as I can tell, the baseboards work perfectly. Never seen the phenomenon mentioned. Could there be something with the models?
BASEBOARD DIMENSIONS It seems baseboards are limited to 2 cm thickness, but can be very high (?). If so, I am curious as to the reason. The feature is great and I am planning on using it for panels on the low part of the wall (wainscoting). But it could be equally useful for exterior walls where lowest part of the wall is thicker than the rest: a high, thick foundation.
Either way, a thick wainscot panelling or foundation could be more than 2cm thick. Not crucial as there are ever so many workarounds, but in general the 2 cm limit seems a bit odd.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.0
I also wondered about the two centimetres, but when you allow for thicker baseboards, you also need an additional option to colour or texture the top of them. Personally, I would love to see both added as extra features.

The reason is that I don't see why a thickness of more than 2 cm should be necessary, and a higher thickness would require an "additional option to colour or texture the top of them" as Hans said. About the height, it's just that I didn't program any control on it yet. Actually, it should be forbidden to set a higher value for a baseboard height than the wall to which it belongs, so if the user reduces the height of the wall, the baseboard height should start to reduce too as soon as the wall height becomes smaller than the current baseboard height. I admit I was a little lazy on this but I'm going to fix it, even if changing the baseboard height in the back of the user doesn't please me too much (the baseboard height is not visible when the user changes the wall height).

Normal baseboards are, of course, rarely thicker than 2 cm, but now that this option is available, other uses are tempting. Wainscoting, panelling on the lower part of the floor, sometimes more. Wall foundations, sometimes more. But also stranger uses. Around our garden there is a thin wooden fence with a concrete foundation 15 cm thick. Would be perfect to make if baseboards (foundation) could be 10 cm. Another colour on top, well, could be nice, but not a must, and methinks not a reason to keep the 'baseboard' thin. Limit the height, well, yes, I guess, but not really a must either. Anyway, the feature really is nice and I have not found any misbehaviour. ok
