Are dome shaped buildings possible with SH3D ?

Thanks for looking at my thread, just a quick question to see if SH3D is for me.

I'm planning on building an "earthbag" dome, and would like to create a 3d render of it first, the dome shape is similar to a lancet arch (or a lemon cut in half), is a building of this shape possible in SH3D?

If so can any one point me to a good resource for learning how to create such unusual shapes in SH3D ?

Thanks!
Mike

Sorry Mike but I'm not sure Sweet Home 3D is the best solution for you.
It is unable to generate domes and it handles only openings with a rectangular shape.
Of course there are always wokarounds, but I would look first if some other software would be more helpful for your case. Don't hesitate to tell here your final choice! smile
