Thanks for the suggestion!

Unfortunately, I can't get the Library Editor to do anything for me. I'm probably doing something stupid... (e.g. see my post to the library's thread.)

Is the editor's documentation available separately?

No luck: Java complains it doesn't understand the option. (rolls eyes)

<t>Problem: warning messages from Java jdk-24<br/>

I'm a irst time (attempted) user of the library creation tool under windows 10.<br/>

I installed and configured Java jdk-24, which seems to work.<br/>

<r>Problem: Cannot access old Furniture data files<br/>
<br/>
I recently installed Sweet Home 3D v7.5<br/>
under Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 build 1945.5854 (the most recent update)<br/>
<br/>
SH3D doesn't seem to see any my old Furniture data files, of which I have many, dating back to 2014 and ...

<t>Can you provide one of those models or a link to where they can be downloaded?<br/>
<br/>
My personal experience with a somewhat similar problem was caused by inappropriate or missing values in the model's .MTL file. Furniture surfaces were reflective instead of being matte. SH3D was using ...

Fortunately, it turns out that an NS of 0.0 works just as well as 1.0

I've been using Anim8or to create my obj models. Ns seems to be controlled by a combination of Anim8or's material values of "Rough" and "Brilliance". Setting them both to 1 yields an Ns of 0.0

<t>Oh. Of course. I've even used it a kajillion times. *sigh*<br/>
<br/>
Anyhoo...<br/>
<br/>
I did a save-to-obj for the object both when it was reflective and when it wasn't. The only difference between the matt .mtl and the reflective .mtl is the Ns value.<br/>

Reflective:<br ...

There's an "export to csv" but that just exports the list of in-use objects... and it's actually an "export to TAB separated values", not "Comma separated values"

For some reason I thought one could not export one of the "in use" objects.... Unfortunately, I can't find that option (to export a furniture object)

*sigh* must be another item that's right in front of me.

<t>Well, my problem is partially solved: <br/>
<br/>
I finally saw the "shininess" option in lower right corner of the "modify furniture" popup. (The popup you get when you double-click on an object currently in use in the 2D panel.) When I selected its "matt" radio button, the reflections stopped ...
