#1219 Light color / Opening limits

[Christos Lagogiannis]

Hello there! I might have found some bugs with "Sweet Home 3D". If you'd like, I can send you a report and discuss about it. Thank you!

(i am working on Widows 11, Sweet Home 3D version 7.2, Java 1.8.0)

1. I consider that the app has a bug at the colors of the lights. For example when i select the green light source, the green color does not appear . This seems to happen for many other colours in light sources such as in: blue light source, fireglow light source, halogen light source, red light source, magenta light source etc. Having this in mind, the colours of the lights are not obvious by first sight in the 3D view. This might cause problems in planning big projects with many colored lights considered in there. I know that the lights are able to work by taking a photo or a video but I don't think that's the best way to solve that.
2. Also, I found out that when I try to modify openings in some furnitures, the opening that can be done is not realistic. For example, in 'chest', the drawers can be opened backwards . This can't happen in real life. What sould be done is that the drawers must open only from the front side. Also, the drawer seems to be floating out of the chest if you modify it way more. The illustration is not realistic in Sweet Home 3D. What should be done in order to illustrate the modifications realisticly is that there must be some restrictions in opening and closing every drawer. This will prevent the problem of 'the floating drawers'. These bugs can also be found in the 'glass door cabinet', in making a door with walls around it, and in many others.

1. Light color has an effect only in photo creation tool at the two best quality levels
2. Handling openings could be surely improved with limits but don't expect this feature soon. Your eyes are the best judge...
