Mark models as favorite (maybe even textures?)
It would be nice to be able to mark models as favorites. Like, when i'm searching for "window", most of the time i use just one specific type of windows where i am - because they are the most common. Same for doors. But i don't want to loose the rest, but i don't want to get through all the previews to find the windows i'm searching. Sweet Home 3D is not a tool i use every day, so it would be nice to be able to mark and see favorite models.
As a possible solution: Rightclick on the model "Favorite" and after that it 1) has a star in the corner to make it visible in the whole list and 2) there is a automatically generated category "Favorites" with all the favorites listed.
(I tried to search the forum and did not find anything about that)
Re: Mark models as favorite (maybe even textures?)
I would love to be able to delete some of the item that were imported from a library. A lot of the stuff I don't ever use, and looking through all of the items in a library takes a long time. I know I can import everything one at a time, but that takes a long time as well. Textures too, I downloaded two library's of textures, I now have 400 to look through. Please help us. Favorites is a great idea too.

Both favorites and removal of library items can be achieved with workarounds.
Favorites (This only works if you have your catalog as a searchable list) Edit the library (or libraries) with the models you want to see as favorites. Add "Favorite" to the keywords list for your favorite models. Import the library and you can use categories like "Doors and windows" like before but when you type "Fav" or "Favorite" in the search bar it will filter only those you have marked as favorite. You can choose whatever keyword you want. '123', 'xyz', or '@@@' will also work as long as it's not a word that is likely to be part of an existing keyword, model name, or description. Be aware that you loose your keyword additions when you import an updated version of a library because that library doesn't have you added keywords.
Delete items from Furniture Library You can edit the original library and remove items but you should do that with a renamed copy of the library. Remove the original library and then import your edited library.
For textures the same workarounds can be used.
