Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
Meta key tested under Ubuntu 12.10, Unity.

Seems to work OK.

Meta is obtained by pressing the left Windows Key and the left Alt key simultaneously.

Thanks for your feedback.

Do you mean that pressing Windows Key alone won't work to toggle magnetism?

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
Well, it works no more this morning... sad Another OpenJDK issue ?
I played with keyboard settings yesterday to find the Meta key, but finally reverted to defaults...

Seems like this needs some more investigations...

With Ubuntu's default settings, the Windows key is used in two different ways :
- short press displays the launcher ;
- long press displays a help screen for keyboard shortcuts.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
The Windows key on my keyboard doesn't do anything at all.
Neither did it anything on my previous keyboard(s).

That said, it's easy to assign any desired action to the Windows key.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
With default settings, and if I read correctly the keyboard map, Meta should be Shift-Alt.
But this doesn't toggle magnetism.

If I change the keyboard settings, so that Meta is on Left Windows Key (I have only one on my Logitech keyboard), it works but after one second holding the key, this help window pops up...
As a workaround, I can press Shift-Windows or Alt-Windows to avoid the popup.

Debian Wheezy, with Oracle Java, shows the same behaviour. Default Meta (Shift-Alt) doesn't work, I have to change keyboard settings to move Meta on the left Windows key. At least, Gnome shell doesn't show this popup help when you hold the Windows key.

@Hans : do you use Unity and/or Compiz on your Ubuntu ?

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
Since Alt key is already used under Linux to move the current window, I guess I'll have to find an other shortcut. sad
I would prefer a single key, but if it's not possible then I'll choose Alt + Shift.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
@Hans : OK, that's why your Windows key does nothing. These keys are defined by Unity.

Alt alone has a similar behaviour, opening the head up display (search bar) or the application's menu (short or long press).

Alt-Shift should be OK.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 4.0
Has the DMG for OSX also been updated to 4.0?

I'm testing the 3.8 DMG here and just got an error message by using the new feature "create photos at point of view": I selected 2 points and choosed the path to save. The rendering process started, but when i got back after a few minutes, a message informed me that there was a problem. No photos saved.

Not yet, but the Java Web Start version should work correctly. If nothing happens when you click on the previous link, double click on the SweetHome3D.4.0.beta.jnlp downloaded file.
