Package: sweethome3d
Version: 4.5+dfsg-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch

SweetHome3D is not listed in the application list reachable via right clicking a file and selecting 
 "Open with"->"Other application..."->"View all applications".
The cause of this is that the SweetHome3D desktop file (/usr/share/applications/sweethome3d.desktop) lacks a %U from the Exec line, 
 this way Gnome3 doesn't recognise the program as being able to handle parameters, so it is excluded from 
 the list of appications.

The solution is to change the line in the file /usr/share/applications/sweethome3d.desktop:

Exec=sweethome3d

to:

Exec=sweethome3d %U
