As I've say already in my previews post
<<Which one?
Give me some point or some graphical picture of what you want.
Don't forget to indicate the name for it.
I can't promise but I try to help You.>>

it remain as truth for every one including You.
Usually I like to help (if I can).

Is this thread still active? I'm asking as I'm trying to import the Belgian electrical symbols available in PNG format at https://www.zelfverbouwen.com/wp-conten ... mbolen.zip. I have used the Windows VB.NET application from XPcRUSHER in this forum to convert some symbols to .sh3f. However I don't see them in Sweet Home after import.
Any suggestions how I can get the AREI symbols in Sweet Home?

At this moment I can't help you because I'm far from any computer.
At end of next week I will make that library for you.

Sorry for the late response. I've seen your question only today.
1. A furniture library or a texture library is basically zip archives.
2. So, you have to change the extension .zip to .sh3f or .sh3t
3. Starting with version 1.5.3 I've made a bash script Create2DSymbols.sh to simplify this process under linux which is inside the package.
4. While it's not quite that simple I could made it for you like I've already done for others fiends here.
