Desktop shortcut?

Post by pencilart »

Can I make a desktop shortcut so I won't be having to open the terminal every time I want to run SweetHome3D?

You can view SweetHome3D file content : it is just a command that should be run inside SweetHome3D-1.1 directory.
Maybe, renaming it as SweetHome3D.sh should make it double-clickable.

Which system are you using ?

I'm using SuSE 10.0 and KDE for my desktop environment.

P.S. I renamed SweetHome3D like you said but that did not work.

ok, I finally got that to work. I had forgotten about the ' that should surround the path.
I also had to put the path in the work path area.
Thanks!!

Why plenty of "Help" messages from sweet home 3D users appeared on my mailbox?!
I'm not the person who created this software!
So HELP! my mailbox is full of messages I'm not concerned with!
