how to install plugins, new textures?

Post by frpatte »

Bonjour,
I installed sweethome3d on a linux fedora, it works but I don't understand how to install plugins and textures.
I tried to install a plugin : https://sourceforge.net/p/sweethome3d/p ... f-4.5.sh3p
I downloaded it and installed in .eteks/sweethome3d/plugins, I can see it under a tab "tools" but it is grey and I cannot activate it.
I tried to import the texture toitureArdoiseBleue.zip, and the anwer was that the new texture was available in the texture catalogue, but I can't see any texture catalogue..

Thank you for helping.

F.P.

You have to select a room object before the option is available. The Roof Generator uses a room as a base to generate the roof. Without a selected room the option stays grey.

You see the texture catalog when you modify furniture and click the button to set a texture. This can be the texture button in the "Color and texture" section or the texture button when you choose materials and the modify button.

Is there any place to find more textures?
