OSX - No Menus??

[Marko_Gargenta]

I just installed SW 1.3.1 on my OSX 10.5.4 system. When I start it, I get only the SweetHome 3D menu on my menu bar and no windows whatsoever. The only menu has the usual About/Hide/Show/Services/Quit options, but that's just general OSX stuff - no option to open a file or start a new project or anything else. Any clues?

Don't you have the splash screen at least ?

Please run Applications > Utilities > Console program and then run Sweet Home 3D.
If there's a problem at Sweet Home 3D launch, some new text should appear in Console.
Copy / paste this text here in a forum message, that should help to fix your problem.

Thank you

I get the splash screen and the app does start. But there's nothing once it starts, no windows, no menus, no error messages (I even tried running it from Terminal). I can see the app running in the tab through applications, and it does get its own menu, with just one item: Sweet Home 3D.

Anything in Console ???

[Marko_Gargenta]

nothing useful

No problems with other 3D applications ?
What Macintosh do you have ? With which graphics card ?

[Marko_Gargenta]

No problems with any other apps. And this app doesn't even report any problems - just doesn't come up with any features.

I successfully run Sketchup and Live Interiors 3D using MacBook 2GHz/Intel Core 2 Duo on OS X 10.5.5

Thank you for your report.

It's maybe a problem in Java.
Could you try to run Art of Illusion available at http://aoi.sourceforge.net ?
