AdvancedEditing.sh3p - Edit Room Points Menu is blank
This is in reference to the plugin: AdvancedEditing.sh3p
The "Edit Room Points" menu, when selected, is drawn as a blank box. The buttons and info boxes do not appear unless I move the mouse pointer across this blank menu. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
I installed the plugin: AdvancedEditing.sh3p to the plugins folder on my Linux system as per instructions in the User's Guide...followed by a restart of SweetHome3D.
Otherwise I enjoy using SweetHome3D's ability to display a three dimensional image of my interior plans.

Dean,
Not sure if this helps... Edit Room Points only works on a room that has been defined before you use the plug-in. You cannot define a room using this plug-in. Also, you have to select the room for the plug-in to become active.
There's a tutorial available on the Documentation page.

Gentleman/ladies,
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 without problems. All plug-ins installed and working. What I did a long time ago was un-install all versions of Java on the computer and install the original Sun/Oracle Java version. After doing that: no problems.

It work great on installed and online version of SH3D. In portable version not work correctly. I use alternatively all 3 version (installed, portable and online) for different reasons. One of this is this issue. I run a Debian-sid distribution 64bit.

Re: AdvancedEditing.sh3p - Edit Room Points Menu is blank
Well I have to sound like a broken record but I still have the problem mentioned in the original thread.
However since my last statement I have tried the following:
1.) I removed all versions of Java and installed system wide the version jre1.6.0_45 that is the same as the one released with SweetHome3D 4.3.
<result: no success>
2.) While I had No.1 in place, I removed the ATI driver on my system and used the driver that came with X.org.
<result: no success>
3.) I added a CLASSPATH environment variable to point to locations of jar files in the lib directory of jre1.6.0_45
<result: no success>
4.) Instead of running SweetHome3D with the plugin on KDE 4.4.3 I tried running them on fvwm2.
<result: no success>
So I am getting rather frustrated.
Here is a sampling of the errors listed as soon as I access the Advanced Editing Plugin: (there was a long list of errors):
Exception occurred during event dispatching: java.lang.ClassCastException:
de.starrunner.sweethome3d.RoomPointsPreview cannot be cast to javax.swing.JScrollPane at javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalBorders$ScrollPaneBorder.paintBorder(Unknown Source)
some more errors: at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.prePaintDirtyRegions(Unknown Source)
and some more: at de.starrunner.sweethome3d.RoomPointsView.displayView(RoomPointsView.java:295) at de.starrunner.sweethome3d.EditRoomPointsAction.execute(EditRoomPointsAction.java:34)
------------------------------------------------------------------ ...Seems like the plugin is unable to find resources needed to run it.
But after trying the above mentioned attempts at a solution, I don't know how to make the plugin "see" those resources. ------------------------------------------------------------- I am using Slackware Linux 13.1 32 bit, 4GB memory, several GB of hard drive space for both program and home directories.

Yesterday I did a new install of Ubuntu 14.04 64-bits. I then downloaded the 64-bit installer version of SH3D 4.3. Works like a charm, right out of the box, including all plug-ins.

In my case I've installed java version 1.7.0_55 / 64 bit for installed SH3D and online version. This work both. In portable version is Java version 1.6.0_45 / 64 bit. That not work. Is the only difference I observe. Try install java version 1.7.0_55.
