Thumbnails for SVG only works for some files

In the details view with thumbs enabled (Details mit Miniatur in german) xyplorer shows only thumbs for some special files. In the preview xyplorer can display the image without any problem.
After copying the files to another location none of the thumbs is displayed. This seems to be a general problem with displaying thumbs for svg files.

Thumbnails and previews are different things handled by different handlers. Apparently your thumbnail handler does not support SVG.

The Windows Explorer can display all of the icons as you can see on the screenshot. I'm using the "SVG Explorer Extension 0.1.1". The strange thing is that some icons can be displayed.

Ok, found a solution: just installed both the 64bit and x86 Version of the extension and now it works! Every icon is correctly displayed!

I've read the above port and have installed BOTH versions of the SVG Expolorer Extension.
Rebooted etc...
SVGs now display fine in Windows Explorer but do not display at all in XYplorer.
Are there some other settings that I need to set or configure somewhere.

Tick this for starters: Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Show thumbnails for non-images

This was and is still checked.
But SVGs do not create thumbnails.

Try this script:
Code: Select all
text get("thumbnailprovider", "svg");

Same here, and it does not work here neither.
I'll check that later...
PS: Does not work in Explorer neither.

I checked it and it should work if the x86 version of the extension is correctly installed. Maybe you need to refresh your thumbnails cache?

Hi,
When you say the x86 version. Can I just make sure that we are talking about exactly the same thing here.
I've downloaded and installed both of the following files from the Google Code Archive.
https://code.google.com/archive/p/svg-e ... /downloads
- dssee_setup_x64_v011_signed.exe
- dssee_setup_i386_v011_signed.exe

Do you have a link to that x86 version?
