Portable 6.3 + Editors?

[otadmin]

When I install the Portable Version 6.3 on a USB-stick it includes the java environment. Question, is it possible to install the Library/Texture Editor on the same stick and will they work with the same java version.

Yes, you may reuse the Java environment included in the Portable version to run editors if needed: find in the jre folder the java or javaw executable of Java, and run it in a command followed by -jar and the path to the JAR executable file of the editor.

Using a cmd or Terminal window, this should take a few seconds if you follow these instructions:
1. Drag and drop the java or javaw executable in the cmd or Terminal window to copy its full path in it
2. Type a space, -jar and another space
3. Drag and drop the icon of the JAR executable file in the cmd or Terminal window to copy its full path in it
4. Type <Enter>

Under macOS, something like:

Code: Select all

/pathTo/SweetHome3D-6.3-portable/jre/macosx/x64/jre8/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java -jar /pathTo/FurnitureLibraryEditor-1.25.jar

If you want to reuse the same command often, consider saving it in a command file (.bat under Windows).
