SVG files not shown in picture file browser

I'm wondering why when I open a file browser to select an image for a control backdrop - "svg" files aren't on the file filter list. I can change the file browser filter to "All files" and the svg files will be shown, and the controls handle the svg image files fine.

Is there an option I have to turn on somewhere?

No the filter list is hard coded.
Maybe ask on the gambas mailing list or bugtracker if it could be added (or why it has not been)

Thanks Bruce - That's sort of what I figured. I'll get over to bug tracker.

Hmmm, maybe a developer will check as to why new registration captcha at bug tracker / mailing list doesn't seem to be working. Weird.

Is the mailing list the forum or is the forum the forum? Not sure.

The mailing list is where the gambas developers are.
https://lists.gambas-basic.org/listinfo/user

Bugtracker and this forum are unconnected

Thanks Bruce.

Yes I tired several times to register on bug tracker / mailing list on a couple different machines- looks like captcha isn't working quite right, or I'm as dumb as a brick...I guess either one could be true. :D
