Window Dialog
Bonjour/Hello everyone

I'm testing this very nice software and I begin to create small plugins for fun.

I test some of the example plugins and it helps a lot (rename furniture, change color, volume, perimeter)

The API seems to allow to access all elements in the scene.

My question is about windows and dialog. In the tested example, I see standard java swing dialog box. Generally, they are displayed on the top of the app and hide current interface.

I would want to develop some additional windows information. For example, like the list of furniture, I would have the list of rooms in a window located in the main interface.

I do not know where it is possible or not.

Thanks for help

Re: Window Dialog
Even if it would be possible to change the UI from a plugin, I wouldn't recommend to do so. I would rather create an application derived from SweetHome3D class with a different view factory.
