Re: Door swing in plan Hi Thanks for the fast reply :) Is PluginFurnitureCatalog.properties saved in plain text format? I don´t know. I don´t think so. I think it is saved in the same format that it comes, = .properties. I can change it to .txt and then it changes appearance. In step 6: change name of MyFile.zip to MyFile.sh3d - that should be MyFile.sh3f. This was a typo :) it was supposed to be MyFile.sh3f. It now works for me. I´m not sure what the problem is, but it has something to do with saving the PluginFurnitureCatolog.properties again OR manipulating the .sh3f file. Probably the latter. .... - Maybe the problem is that I´m using mac OS X and the zip program that comes with it by default changes the file somehow... So doing what you suggested, but with out copying the file out of the zip file. My solution was to download a zip program, ( https://macitbetter.com/BetterZip-Quick-Look-Generator/ ) . This program enabled me to open the zip file with out extracting it. From there I could open the PluginFurnitureCatalog.properties file, make changes to it and save it. Then just saving the zip file again and changing the extension to .sh3f. Then Furniture... import furniture library. :) The original values do work, and may be the way you want them, but they could be a bit confusing if someone else tried them on a similar door. So I changed doorOrWindowWallThickness# so the frame protrudes on both sides of the wall, and I moved the door swing to inside the doorframe. I also added a full cut-out to avoid an empty frame being filled: Thanks for cleaning up my file. I was going to do it when I had this working, but much better having it done for me :) All the best, Haffi |
