Where 3D models should be placed for SH3D program to see them automatically? I would like to package extra SH3D models such that they would be found automatically. SH3D itself works from this JAR /usr/local/share/java/classes/SweetHome3D-6.6.4.jar Is there a system location where additional *.sh3f files (for example Contributions.sh3f) should be placed where SweetHome3D would automatically discover them when it runs? The location has to be under /usr/local (PREFIX). |

Re: Where 3D models should be placed for SH3D program to see them automatically? The location where SH3F files are stored depends on user's system: - Under Windows Vista / 7 / 8 / 10 11, it's the folder C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\eTeks\Sweet Home 3D\furniture (where user is its login) - Under Windows XP, it's the folder C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\eTeks\Sweet Home 3D\furniture - Under Mac OS X, it's the subfolder Library/Application Support/eTeks/Sweet Home 3D/furniture of user's home folder - Under Linux, it's the subfolder .eteks/sweethome3d/furniture of user's home folder. By the way, if you're some kind of Linux repository manager or have a way to speak with them, please stop making Sweet Home 3D depend on last Java version. It generally works better with Java 8. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Hi Emmanuel, Unfortunately home directory doesn't work in order to install 3D models/plugins through the package. The location should be read-only, under $PREFIX. Something like /usr/local/share/sweethome3d/furniture. Is it possible to make sweethome3d to look for 3D models and plugins in a location like this? Thanks, Yuri |
