Cannot show navigable SVGs in Qt4
Message 1 in thread
Something in the direction of Andreas question (April 14th) which
was unanswered.
I'm trying to have a "navigable" svg (==following links to other
svg files) like this one, in a qt4 app :
http://faust.grame.fr/exemples/diagram/freeverb.dsp-svg/process.svg
Using QSvgWidget( "process.svg", parent); shows the first svg
file but it doesn't follow the links. Is it possible to enable
this navigability someway?
Since firefox --and i guess most of the modern browsers-- handle
svg with links, we also tried to open a browser as an alternative:
QDesktopServices::openUrl( "process.svg" );
But in my Ubuntu Feisty box what it's opened is EyeOfGnome as
shown here which do show the svg file but doesn't allow
navigability:

So the question, in this case is: is it possible specify the
preferred browser?
Thanks

I don't know how QDesktopServices::openUrl is implemented, but you might
be lucky with setting the environment variable BROWSER which seems to be
interpreted by various other applications.
A link which backups my "Einstein theory" is here ;)

BROWSER=firefox ./myApp
It worked, thanks! :)
And if I define a non existing browser it uses the default (eog
here)
However I'm still interested for a native way to do navigable svg
within qt4
