Re: Sweet Home 3D 7.3
When you select a single object in the 3D view the keyboard combo ctrl+E works to get the modify dialog but not if you select multiple objects in the 3Dview.
I just tried under Windows, macOS and Linux, but didn't notice this issue. It would be astonishing that a plug-in could alter this behavior.
I just tried it again with both 7.2 and the 7.3 beta versions and the result remains the same: select one object in the 3Dview and ctrl+E opens the modify dialog, select two or more and ctrl+E is ignored, i.e. doesn't open the modify dialog.
Since ctrl+E does work with a single object it's not likely that the keyboard event is caught by something else. Multiple selects of walls or rooms work as they should (ctrl+shift+E and ctrl+alt+E).
Maybe worthy to note: select multiple furniture in the 3Dview and add another one to the selection in the 2Dview. Now ctrl+E does work for the multi-selection. Even select/unselect an additional object in the 2Dview makes it that ctrl+E does work. It seems that a multi-selection only in the 3Dview isn't recognized for the keyboard event. Using the context menu does work but it requires to leave the keyboard and use the mouse.

This is with Sweet Home 3D 7.3 beta 1 on Debian Linux (tested on two different Debian versions, host and VM). Version 7.2 has the same problem.
