Asked by Navin Talati

I tried through USC.
I also trioed through Synaptic Package Manager.
I also tried through terminal to install.
I also tried through wine using .exe files.
I also tried through following commands:

          sudo add-apt-repository ppa: upubuntu-com/graphics

           sudo apt-get update

           sudo apt-get install sweethome-3d

But I am unable to install the sweet home 3d.
Would you please show me the way HOW TO INSTALL "SWEET HOME 3D" ?

not

sudo add-apt-repository ppa: upubuntu-com/graphics

Not the space that yourcommand has after the colon, this will make it not work.

Sir,
I corrected the command as suggested by you. Thanks for the same.
The process of installation took place and installed too.
But it CRASHES as soon as its loading is initiated and thge icon on the bar initially flashes as if it will be launched just now but immediately after 5-6 flashes it disappears from launcher bar.
How to resolve this issue?

Try running the app from the terminal, the output may help. I suggest you contact the PPA maintainer.
