Extension "SVG Reader" on mashup?

rafael_qg — Tue, 20 Sep 2022 10:56:15 GMT

Hi,

Does the extension "SVG Reader" work fine on mashups?

I'm trying to visualize a map svg (using SVG Reader) on mashup but it doesn't work. I drag the SVG map and the page goes blank.

I'm using QS Desktop Aug. 22.

Thanks!!

Rafa

Hi @rafael_qg ,

you could look for more information: Open the mashup, or first the dev-hub http://localhost:4848/dev-hub/ via web browser. Open the mashup with dev tools opened (depends on your browser: https://blog.hubspot.com/website/how-to-inspect ) and look for error messages.

Best,
Markus

Thansk @_datadude

I've been looking for the errors as you said and I found 2 errors 404 (I attach screen).

One of them is "not found http://localhost:4848/api/v1/user-locale"

And the other one is: "not found http://localhost:4848/extensions/Plano_Inmo/extensions/svgReader/svgs/imagen_plano_INMO.svg"

It's weird because the file SVG is in the correct path "/extensions/svgReader/svgs/imagen_plano_INMO.svg".

I don't understand why the image is not visible!

Please, can you help me?

Thanks a lot.

Rafa

Dear @rafael_qg

I'm very sorry for my late reply - I really thought that the web server built into QS Desktop had a bug and couldn't serve svg files. - But that is not the case.

In fact, the directory structure is not correct and therefore the svg files cannot be found:

Inside the mashup you have to create a subfolder extensions and put the "svgReader" extension into this folder:

C:\Users\username\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Extensions\SVG\extensions\svgReader

"SVG" is the name of my sample mashup.

And thus we have "extensions" twice in the path.

It's unfortunate that you're facing issues with the ""SVG Reader"" extension on your mashup in QS Desktop. It should ideally work fine for visualizing SVG maps. Since it's not functioning as expected, you might want to explore other options.Consider using an AI SVG generator to ensure your SVG map is in the right format or to make any necessary adjustments. It offers a range of vector graphics that could complement your project.Additionally, you could check for any updates or patches for the ""SVG Reader"" extension that might address the issue you're experiencing. Troubleshooting with the community or seeking support from the extension's developers could also be beneficial.
