MX 17 Repository: The sweethome3d Thread

#1 Post by mmikeinsantarosa »

sweethome3d-5.7 is now available for download from the test repository. This is mostly a bug fix but quite a few since our last one here (5.4).
Version 5.7, January 25, 2018

Added a preview component to file choosers used to select an image under Windows and Linux.
Managed user defined furniture properties added to catalogs read by Sweet Home 3D and read/saved by Furniture Library Editor.
Fixed the visibility of horizontally rotated objects at upper levels.
Fixed the size in the plan of a copied-pasted object which is horizontally rotated.
Fixed a bug that prevented to group unresizable furniture or read a SH3D file saved with a previous version which contained such objects.
Fixed the display of furniture catalog and furniture list when scrolling under Mac OS X 10.13 with Java 6.
Fixed Window menu management under Mac OS X with Java 8.
Replaced JRE 8u152 by JRE 8u162 in Sweet Home 3D installers bundled with Java.
Converted CVS repository on SourceForge.net to SVN (sorry for the dead links to sweethome3d.cvs.sf.net server that this change implies).
Other minor bugs fixes and enhancements.

Version 5.6, October 25, 2017

Fixed a bug that prevented to export to CSV format.
Fixed the size of furniture in subgroups when their parent group is resized.
Fixed wrongly computed threshold of doors larger than the side of a room.
Improved printing performances under Mac OS X with Java 8u152.
Replaced JRE 8u144 by JRE 8u152 in Sweet Home 3D installers bundled with Java.
Other minor bugs fixes and enhancements.
I also rebuilt the texture & furniture editors and the new furniture library and those are also in test.

Yeah, there are tons of tutorials on youtube.

Here's their home page and they have a fairly active forum.

Too bad I cannot get the online version to work. Not in Chrome and not in Firefox.

But no biggie as I don't use it. Besides that should go in a different forum ;)

Eadwine, I'm not sure what you mean here? 5.7 is in the MX17 repo and I sent the set for MX 15/16 up earlier this morning.
5.7 is the latest.

I mean the ONLINE version. The site says: Use Sweet Home 3D Online or download.

I was going to take a looksee online, since that might be useful elsewhere :) But the java in both browsers won't kick in. But that is a question for elsewhere on this forum, not this thread :)


Oh wait.. "Sweet Home 3D Online may run under Windows with Internet Explorer and under Mac OS X 10.7 to 10.13 with Safari.
It requires JavaScript and Java 5 or superior (Java SE 6 update 10 or superior preferred)."

I turned on the IE10 ieonchrome extension and it works in there. Just ignore the failure blahblah message.

I thought Firefox and Chrome don't support the Java browser plugins any longer. That's weird if it works. Maybe it's just using Javascript.

It does if you use ieonchrome in Chrome, like I said, and use IE10. :) It doesn't work otherwise.
