SVG not loading on launch

Post by oecleus »

Hello, while trying to make it so that I could scroll through SVG's like other image types I seem to have messed up a setting such that SVG's will not show up in the browser on launch. Other image types are unaffected/working properly. From within the browser if I select the SVG it loads properly.

Does anyone know what setting I can change to fix this?
Also, is there a setting so that I can play SVG's in slideshow? I tried removing svg from exclude in tools/settings/file_list/custom_filter but that did not fix it.

Thats what I did. When I did that is when it broke. Though maybe I changed another setting unknowingly. It's not in that list now and it is still broken.

rename your xnview.ini (so new one will be created), then edit Custom filter
make sure you use latest version

I'm not sure where my xnview.ini file is, as it is not in my Program Files\XnViewMP\ folder.

But I reinstalled xnview and it worked out of the box. So the problem is resolved.
