Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
The final release won't appear before a few days or weeks, because it requires some translations. But as the version 5.5 is supposed to fix the bug that prevents to show file dialogs in Windows 10 Creator update, here's a Windows installer for version 5.5 Beta 4 [link removed, see this message to test version 5.5 Beta 5] to let you and others check this bug was fixed (you shouldn't need the SweetHome3D.l4j.ini file to set swing.defaultlaf anymore). I updated also the Java Web Start version to version 5.5 Beta 4 after fixing some bugs I discovered on the management of groups which contain objets rotated around an horizontal axis.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
The version 5.5 Beta 5 fixes a regression that appeared in the previous version on doors which are supposed to cut the both faces of walls. I also tried to improve the new image shown in the Furniture modification dialog box, showing a chest:
instead of a cube:
I also renamed the new Virtual visitor selected at change preference as Select visitor in plan at 3D move, in the hope it will be easier to understand.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
Great work, great program. Sadly the new 5.5 beta 4 does not solve the crashing when using the open/save dialog popup in W10. The java webstart 5.5 you provided at the top of this threat does work however.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
First anomaly for me !
An existing project made with 5.4 and copy/paste and updated with 5.5 beta4 !!!
See the window and the wall (standard height 2.5 m) ???
=> All updated objects are wrong !

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
Thanks for your feedback.
harhouse, can you confirm that you tried the Java Web Start version 5.5 of Sweet Home 3D with Java 1.8.0_141 or higher (see About dialog)?
bdfd, can you describe step by step how to reproduce this bug with an example as simple as possible?

Well,
I began with a new project.
4 Walls (h = 2.5 m, width = 0.33 m) One door for entry A standard fixed window (vitrine in french) updated with dimensions : elevation = 1.1 m height = 1 m lenght = 1.6 m
Boom, look at the screenshot...
The wall keeps the old dimensions and the 'new' window has new location...

Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
As I suspect your issue is due to a regression in the Beta 4, please try the Windows installer version 5.5 Beta 5 [link removed, see this message to test version 5.5 Beta 6]. Did you remove the SweetHome3D.l4j.ini file from your installation directory to check if the bug that prevents to show file dialogs in Windows 10 Creator update is fixed? I have an other idea to fix it, but would like to know how the first attempt worked for you, after harhouse's bad report.
