Furniture Library - objects not showing up

I've imported 3 furniture libraries: 3DModels-Contributions-1.6.2.zip, 3DModels-LucaPresidente-1.6.2.zip, and 3DModels-Scopia-1.6.2.zip using the Import Furniture Library menu option. All imported with no errors. The 3 files can be found in AppData\Roaming\eTeks\Sweet Home 3D\furniture. The problem I'm having is that none of the furniture shows up on the Furniture List.

Now, if I import a single piece of furniture using Import Furniture, it works just fine. Before posting this request, I rebooted my computer, but still no library furniture in the list.

Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

Re: Furniture Library - objects not showing up

Are you sure that you imported the .sh3f files contained in the .zip files you mentioned ?

Re: Furniture Library - objects not showing up

That's the problem. I clicked on Import Furniture and gave it the name of the zip file. After unpacking the library, it's definitely working. Thank you.

I did another test and verified that the message for importing the zip file is identical to the message when importing .sh3f files. There is no error message. (Note: After downloading, I grabbed the name and location of the zip file and pasted it into the import dialog vs browsing for a file. Had I browsed, it would have shown me no .sh3f files. Shame on me for this shortcut). Thank you for your help and a great product.
