Re: Anyone using Freecad to design new 3d models with colors or textures?
Unfortunately not, and there is also a problem because there are no ways to group several objects making a unique furniture without having them fused (so exported as a unique element).

I will try to contribute to Freecad in order to remove some of these limits.

In the mean time I found a way to use objects created by Freecad:
1) simply export them as raw elements in obj, one by one as freecad is not able to export more than one object at a time
2) import each part of the item in SH3d
3) assign the right color/texture to each part
4) select all the items in SH3D and select the menu "Export as obj" from the 3d view
5) after that I have obtained a unique furniture made up of several parts, each one customizable after having placed it on a plan
