Description

When I try to open a svg file in inkscape using this plugin from vscode on ubuntu. Then inkscape has no icons, they are all orange

What happen when run /usr/bin/inkscape fileToOpen.svg

[RuuddR]

When doing that inkscape opens up normally with the file loaded and with icons. So that works as expected

[tjx666]

try setting:

{
      "extensionName": "svg",
      "apps": [
        {
          "title": "inkscape",
          "shellCommand": "/usr/bin/inkscape ${file}"
        }
      ]
    },

I changed that and it still does the same thing unfortunately. What I find weird is that it is executing the command right and when I paste that exact command in a terminal in vscode it opens up normally

These are my settings now:

"openInExternalApp.openMapper": [
    {
      "extensionName": "svg",
      "apps": [
        {
          "title": "inkscape",
          "shellCommand": "/usr/bin/inkscape ${file}"
        }
      ]
    },
  ]

When I go to preferences in inkscape and change the icon theme then inkscape crashes and I get the following message in vscode open file by shell command failed, execute: "/usr/bin/inkscape /path/to/file/icon.svg"

is you file path contains space? can you provide the screenshot or log string like following?

It doesn't look like it

Getting this error when changing icon theme, while this normally works
