Tags in the furniture catalog

Post by jukkah »

There are so many correct ways to say things such as furniture names. Now, we have a great furniture catalog e.g. in the portable version.

At the moment, it can be difficult to find a piece of furniture, what you are looking for (especially if you do not think the name of the furniture in the same way as its creator or translator). It is not good for new users; I do not want to hear that "the app was OK, but there was too much furniture".

So, I would vote for adding tags for all the furniture. There is always a long list of possible words per item, but if there are for example 10 words for specific furniture, in really world, and 3 of these are in the tag list, the furniture should be found in a few search. I think it is normal to try to search 2-4 times before giving up.

Support for the optional tags property was added in furniture properties files of Sweet Home 3D 3.6, along with the information, creationDate, grade properties.
A tags# property can contain comma separated words or expressions, which are used in the search engine of the catalog. You can already try it if you want to, and send me new Finnish PluginFurnitureCatalog_fi.properties files if you want [:)]
I shall do it in the English and French version too...

Awesome! [=D>]

The task will take time and I'm very busy (... a long list of pretexts why I cannot do it), so I will wait for some time.

But now I know how to do it, so I might do it at some point.
