The 2 doors in the middle of the dwelling are backwards. When you open them you walk into the middle wall. The doors should both open onto the middle wall respectively which allows you to walk into the room proper, and not into the wall along the edge of the room as you enter the room - which is the way you placed them in the layout - and there's an opening in the wall between the rooms which actually puts you in the other room as you walk in with the doors the way they are. Simply move the opening in the wall down and leave space to allow the doors of both rooms to open onto the middle wall..
Thanks for the video Sean. Can you show us how if possible can the actual base with all features can be rotated (Not the 3d view but actual 2D base plan) Thank you
+adamntina. Select File->Preferences. There you can set options for 'Furniture Catalog View' and 'Furniture Icons in Plan'. Thanks for liking the video.
In this demo, I see you IMPORT an existing file, which I donot have, as I just installed the program. I would really like to DRAW FROM SCRATCH an area of 8m X 50m (the terrain I bought) and ON IT, start drawing my house, without importing another drawing... Thank you or anyone who could help-advise in this matter !
Hi,nice work! a simple question... how can i visualize the icons of furniture on the left as a see them in this video? mine are only sequencies of cartel with a "+".... and there is not a search field!! why? i didn't found settings to change this view
I hate it so much when they mount the paper roll BEHIND you, when there is a perfectly good wall on a side. It's done like that in most hotels, so frustrating.
Hi Sean, thanks so much for a great video - I watched and was impressed enough to want to buy Sweet Home 3D, as I want the many textures and objects, but Amazon won't sell it to me due to "geographical restrictions" (I'm Down Under). Any way you know I can buy it? Thanks!
seems a strange restriction. you can download it for free from the website. www.sweethome3d.com/download.jsp. I used the free version in this video. If you download furniture from www.sweethome3d.com/importModels.jsp, you can just drag and drop it into the SH3D furniture panel
This is a very useful video you've made. I got a question for you about how to creat differents heights of the floor on the same level. I can't figure it out and would like you to guide me.
It can be done. Create a project with a template house, export it as OBJ (3Dview menu). Create a second project, import the house (furniture menu), and use it like a furniture. SW does not accept negative elevations, but pools can be resumed to blue rectangles. SweetHome is very fast to understand and learn, and allows to build very quick plans. It has many flaws when it comes to mm precision of dimensions, but if you can accept 50cm mistakes it's the most portable and fastest app for a quick plan.
Hi, how did you do that furniture preview menu in the top left-hand corner, where you search by typing the furniture you need under all categories and you get the miniatures of the furniture u can choose from? In other videos I've seen of sweet home people have only a menu with a list and they have to click through different categories.
ok i have 2 things i dont understand: 1. I have a floor plan in pdf form (which I can just convert to png or jpeg or just screenshoot it to get a png file that's usable in this Sweet Home 3D app to import as a background image). The plan, though, simply says that the scale is "1:50", so that (I guess) means that each centimeter in the plan corresponds to 50cm in reality. BUT the problem is that there is no "ruler" anywhere on the plan... So how do I know how to draw a scaling line from point A to point B so that the SH3D app can import it in scale to the furniture pieces (whose dimensions I know) I want to then add to the plan in scale to the plan's real scale?? It doesnt make any sense... 2. Then, after I've (somehow) set the image's scale, the SH3D app asks you to "set the origin point of the image in plan by clicking at its location" in the image... What is the "origin point"??
The origin point is where you want 0,0 to be on the plan view. It can be wherever you want, but most common to leave it at top left of your diagram. With your scaling issue, it sounds like it's a case of trial and error.
im not really sure what you mean. the plan view is top down 2d. or do you mean, flatten the 3d model so that it creates a squashed version of it? Or do you mean orthographic mode in 3d view.
in the file->preferences, you have options to change the presentation of the top down plan view. You can then screengrab or also export as svg. You will need to experiment to get it close to the way you want.
seanwasere youtubeHi I just post to ask Is this floor plan app only available for downloads on PC's, laptop etc or it can also be available to download on tablets just asking. If not I think they (developers) should consider that to make it available for downloads on tablets cause this app seems pretty cool app. I look forward to your reply a.s.a.p.
File->Preferences->Unit, changes how most measurements are displayed throughout the application, but it doesn't appear to affect the room dimensions. maybe in a newer update it will.
seanwasere youtube i cant get my head around it.all i need is the triangle wall .it is for a semi detached bungalow.is there an email address i can reach you at?willing to pay a fee for you to do it for me please.let me know
I'll create a small tutorial for it. Also, If you can, upload a screen grab, or your unfinished model to your google drive and then share it with me. I will take a look.
looking for a way to make my dimensions fit, finally get to the point where he's measuring his stuff and hopefully showing me how to fix it. "nah, not gonna bother about that"
Useless software - Sweet Home 3D does not measure from corner to corner, but from middle of the wall to middle of the wall - stupid aproach for planing my furnitures, because I live within the wall and not inside walls
Just bought your course because of the advanced furniture modeling and parts (hinges) techniques using Blender 3D.
Cool, thanks!
Thanks filled me with confidence to delve in!
Thank you very much. A real nice and "keep it simple" demonstration - it really got me going!
Thank u so much really i did ur project and my teacher liked it!💞
What a cool little program this is.
Thanks for the tutorials man!
Amazing video, I just started whit this program and I learnd a lot of new thing how to do that I didnt know till now. Ty :)

Hi! is it possible to add distance/width measurements and angle measurements to the 3D view? I have not found such a feature.
Thank you so much
Wow.. wonderful!this is the meanest video that i have ever watched! thank you so much
Mean! Cool
Nice
Thanks
Thanks for this video. What do you mean when you say "tap" a wall up or down (or sideways) a bit? Use arrow keys?
use the arrow keys on your keyboard. Select an object in the top down view, and then move it a bit by tapping the keys.
The 2 doors in the middle of the dwelling are backwards. When you open them you walk into the middle wall. The doors should both open onto the middle wall respectively which allows you to walk into the room proper, and not into the wall along the edge of the room as you enter the room - which is the way you placed them in the layout - and there's an opening in the wall between the rooms which actually puts you in the other room as you walk in with the doors the way they are.

Hello
Please advise, how to print all LEVELS I created during the planning (levels - not house floors, but stages of work)
Thank you
I don't know, sorry
sir thank you I learned lot .provide new videos
My current problem is how can I get the floor plan window lager or bottom 3D window close
LOL disregard last post... just read the comments and found the answer
thanks!

free
thanks dude, awesome work,
I'm wondering can we draw a roof on sweethome3d?
yes you can, i was meaning to create a tutorial for it. give me a few days
I'll be waiting sir, thanks b4
Hi Norman, I've added a tutorial now, ua-cam.com/video/3FkP6G5ntMw/v-deo.html, was busy on other things for the last few weeks.
At 15:35. it says "611" not "119"..
I hate it so much when they mount the paper roll BEHIND you, when there is a perfectly good wall on a side. It's done like that in most hotels, so frustrating.
Does the system know what standard size door sizes are ?
No, but if you know the door size you want, you can set it.

GUIDE POUR UTILISER CE APLICATION SWEET HOME 3D
short question: is there a hot key for switching between 3d view and 2d view.?
Thank you,,great video :)
not really, but 'crtl-alt-y' toggles between 3d view in a separate window or docked in main window.
It may achieve the same purpose your looking for.
Thank you.. yes if you minimize 2d view, it will work.. :)
Coming from 3d max where basic model was easy to make, i can't get my head around on how to make a simple box.
That is closed on all sides.
?? :)
There is a box (cube) in the object list on the left. Miscellaneous group.
aahh :) sorry missed that one.
There is a quick way to create rooms in 1s: double click inside them. Please add a tip in the youtube video.
I've added a quick tip for it now, @10:13
Thanks for the idea, I never actually tried that before.
Mounting the toilet paper roll behind the toilet or 6 inches above the floor is a very cruel thing to do. Good tutorial though :)
He might have teenagers :)
Hi Sean, is there a way to flatten and make a 2D floorplan?
