[Puybaret]

Lumaja, did you try the solution I posted?

1. This forum is not intend to be for how to administrate various kind of linux systems. The "su" command is the classic way to become "root".
I suppose You have some kind of *buntu or *mint. You could tell me more by typing in terminal: infobash -v3
2. Anyway you could skip the part with "su" and continue with steep 2

[Lumaja]

Yes, and just did it again the file in .eteks Plugins are all there, made two walls in SH looking
into Plan Connect walls is not there.

[Lumaja]

I have all the extracted files of AdvancedEditing in eteks/Plugins
Thank you.

1. In a previous post I've made a mistake:

--Open an terminal (console):
--type su
--type your root password
--type mv /root/home/.eteks
--type exit & close the terminal.

Please replace mv /root/home/.eteks with rm -rf /root/home/.eteks/
2. As normal user (luis) open a terminal and type:
2.1. ls -al /home/luis/.eteks/sweethome3d/
You should have something like these:

drwxr-xr-x 8 luis luis 4096 Aug 29 13:39 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 luis luis 4096 Aug 9 2012 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 luis luis 4096 Sep 1 08:19 furniture

drwxr-xr-x 2 luis luis 4096 Feb 25 2014 textures
drwxr-xr-x 2 luis luis 4096 Sep 1 08:21 work

2.2. ls -al /home/luis/.eteks/sweethome3d/plugins/
In my system I have this:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 dorin dorin 2840 Jun 8 2009 VolumePlugin.jar

That's the way my SH3D work great.
Hope this is helpful for You.

is totally different why is this ?

[dorin]

You have extract the AdvancedEditingPlugin-src.zip file.
You need only the AdvancedEditing.sh3p file to be copy in plugins directory.
Solution:
1. Go in /home/luis/.eteks/sweethome3d/plugins/ and delete all.
2. Download AdvancedEditing.sh3p file and copy in plugin directory.
3. Start SH3D program.
P.S. That's how to install plugins in SH3D.

[Lumaja]

Thank you, eventually is in SH and can connect walls.
Went to see with ls -al /home/luis/.eteks/sweethome3d/plugins/
luis@luis-G41M-Combo:~$ ls -al /home/luis/.eteks/sweethome3d/plugins/
total 112
drwxrwxr-x 2 luis luis 4096 Sep 30 13:25 .
drwxrwxr-x 9 luis luis 4096 Sep 26 14:20 ..
-rw-rw-r-- 1 luis luis 103612 Sep 18 09:45 AdvancedEditing.sh3p
luis@luis-G41M-Combo:~$
Not the same as you get, is the difference matters?.

[dorin]

NO!
I have installed more plugins then You have.
Now, in menu bar of SH3D, You must find:
Menu bar Plan -> Connect walls.
To use this You must have some walls draw in plan.
Remember ALL walls have a start point and an end point.
You can connect the end point of FIRST selected wall with the start point of the SECOND selected wall.(use Shift for this).
Make some tests on a mew plan to learn how it's work.
Their is more tricks to discover like 2 clicks.
