Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
I just copied the new files in the beta-11 directory, thinking that was all I needed to do. I forgot that I needed the Xmx-thing to change memory usage.
Rest assured, I didn't hit myself overly hard. :-)

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
I have been doing some extensive testing of v6 β14 using OSX Mojave, and have found a couple of things I would like to mention:
1) β14 does not read textures correct for files created with older versions:
2) When importing furniture, the status of the Continue-button changes before the model has loaded.
3) When cancelling a rendering by mistake, the rendering just stops without offering a chance to reconsider your choice. It's very easy to cancel a render process unintentionally and loose hours of rendering, so this is important!

3) Rendering stopping without asking can happen also under other OS's, especially in the beginning of the rendering process.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
Cecilia, thanks for your report.
1) Could you send me a demo file with textures that don't behave as in version 5.7?
2) I don't think it's very serious, moreover in the 3rd step of the furniture import wizard.
3) The stop button starts to warn you once the rendering has already lasted 30s.

That's what I noticed, so no problem for me.
But... I did notice some strange behavior. When I make a quick render using Q1, I get a different picture from what I expect. (See screenshot). However, when I make the same render in Q3 everything is normal.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
Cec, I couldn't reproduce the 3D error during furniture wizard. I already saw it happen rarely, but I could force the error myself during the past days. I even tried to press <enter> to continue very quickly between each step, but even this behavior didn't cause problems. Does it happen each time in your case?
I also successfully tested the copy/paste between projects. I suspect you tried to copy something from Sweet Home 3D 5.7 then paste it in a new project running with Sweet Home 3D 6.0 Beta, in which case it can't work. Copy/Paste works only within the same Sweet Home 3D program.
Hans, I couldn't reproduce your issue too. There must be an additional parameter...

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0

More or less each time. I can reproduce this error every time I'm importing bigger models. Not so often with smaller. It would be nice if continue didn't work until it was safe to use.
Copy/Paste works only within the same Sweet Home 3D program.
Of course. I even saved the linked project with v6 and re-opened it. After copying a spotlight, the only option I get is to Paste Style – Paste is greyed out on the menu.
