VS 1.1.001
Mac OS 10.15.7

Thanks for adding Quicklook.
However, Quicklook does not work.

To test it, I took it out and put it in a given directory. Still it does not work.

@861475_VctSt It's working over here for me.
Did you turn on "store preview" ahead of time?
If you're opening files created prior to beta build 1.1, it's not going to work because preview images were not created for those files at that time. You also need to go into Document Setup and click the box for "Store Preview" so that a preview is created and saved with that specific file. If you set it in "new Document Setup" it will auto create a preview with each new file you make going forward.
I don't know if going back to the old files and saving with "store preview" turned on would create a new preview for those or not - have not tried it yet.

@Boldline

Thanks.
However, the progress indicator spins around but eventually shows the VS icon.

Is there anything else I need to set other than
Document Setup>General>Store Preview?

MacBookPro(Retina, 15inch)

I tried it here as well. It doesn't even turn on the progress indicator, it just shows the VS icon.

v1.1.016

I can't see it yet in my environment.

VectorStyler

@861475_VctSt There are still problems with preview on some MacOS versions, this is an open issue.

All right, all right.
I'll wait patiently.

@VectorStyler I was going to ask the same question. Is it planned to be able to preview VS files soon (in Windows)? It is in fact impossible to preview these files in another app and there is no such facility in VS (yet). Thanks

There are some issues with the Mac previewing, but the Windows preview should work now.

Of course you must enable select a previewing mode in the document setup and save the file with the preview (beta 1.2).

@VectorStyler Did not notice this feature in 1.2. I can preview an image with a red background in a third-party app but not in File Explorer or ABridge.

I will test this.

@VectorStyler Thanks Here is what I can see in XnView (red background):

VectorStyler

@Pat I will try to replicate this issue. Was the file saved with a preview mode?

B-Vs-V

@VectorStyler Yes it was

@VectorStyler This happens when 'Preview' is set to 'Image' (was going to report it as well).

B-Vs-V

@b77 "Jpeg" too for me ("png" does not provide any preview).

B-Vs-V

@VectorStyler Partially fixed. I can see previews in XnView when 'jpeg' is chosen without any red background but I don't see previews with 'image' & 'png', and no previews in W files explorer.
