    It is not exporting any changes. When I exported selected jbeam parts, it does nothing. The document is updated, but no changes are made. Going to reinstall Blender see if that is problem.

    You might need to restart Blender after enabling the addon, as the old addon can conflict.

    I didn't even think about keyboard language, I am Swedish so that could definitely be the problem, I am gonna check as soon as I can.
    --- Post updated ---
    Yep, it was the keyboard language, I think the reason for me not being able use that shortcut is because in my usual keyboard language I don't have a standalone button for "]" or "[" for me to be able to get a "]" I need to press "alt + 9"
    meaning I have to press "ctrl + alt + 9" to use that shortcut and that´s probably why it didn't work

    thats right, it doesnt have permission to write there, i looked into the console and it said ERRNO 13 didnt have permission to write to LHSAvent_doors.jbeam, so i guess the write permissions are changed
    EDIT: run blender as admin and then it does work, it changed the value and didnt give an error

    I reinstalled Blender, new location (default install path) did not add the old node beam editor just to be sure.
    I know you will figure it out :D Shaping up to be one amazing tool that everyone's going to love.

    Thank you for your great effort, angelo. I appreciate it! But I have a question: Has anyone experienced the same problem? I cannot see any jbeams and not be able to export it.

    Are you trying to make a JBeam from scratch?

    sorry its not supported right now, but you can import like a very basic jbeam file and then essentially create it from scratch that way :)

    Is it still possible to convert a low polygon mesh into a jbeam mesh? Or does it work differently than before? Sorry if it’s been disclosed already, I just noticed it. :confused:
