The main window provides access to all of the main functions of the program. The user layout of Sweet Home 3D is simple and intuitive. It features a user-friendly interface and 3D rendering capabilities, making it easy to visualize the completed design. Sweet Home 3D is a powerful interior design software that allows you to create realistic floor plans and home designs. Not very intuitive.Free software designed to layout the furniture on a home plan, with a 3D preview. You can circumvent the problem by adding a point to the room as shown in the post. There is a bug and you can't make a hole exactly rectangular. It is just what I did and found it rather "tricky". It describes how to insert a velux window in a roof, i.e. In the latter case, I found it simpler to create a roof element from a wall and exporting it as an object.Ĭheck this forum post. I have tested the roof-generating plug-in which is very convenient and efficient except for creating holes. There's also a growing help item you can review. You will have to learn how to handle it, especially with difficult forms, but the forum topic for this plug-in has many ideas and solutions explained. It works great and the resulting object size is way smaller than I had with using roof parts to compile a full roof. I'm in the process of replacing ALL my roofs with ones generated by this plug-in. Like Emmanuel stated: try the roof generator plug-in. Maybe you could try also the roof generator plug-in.Įmmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D developer You can still tilt thin boxes if your want by rotating them around their horizontal axis. Thanks for the suggestion but walls will always remain vertical in Sweet Home 3D. You, developpers (unfortunately I am not), thanks for considering this suggestion which, I am sure, would be appreciated by many others. This solution would also allow to simply add roof windows the same way as for vertical walls. In terms of programming would not it be possible to add a "tilt" parameter to walls so that you could build inclined walls or roofs. Thinking about that question, I came to the simple idea that a roof is nothing else than a wall but inclined.
I have found different tips and tutorials to do that, and if I managed to do, I did not found it so easy nor efficient. I think I now master a majority of functions and tips but there is still one function which is not, in my opinion, well implemented : the creation of roofs. I am a new user of SH3D and really enjoy it (congratulations to the developpers !).
