Subject: [Inkscape-user] Setting Inkscape as default SVG editor on Linux

Greetings,

I’m fairly new to Linux, and we’re running RHEL in a virtualized environment.

After much searching and various attempts, I haven’t come across a standard way to specify that Inkscape is the preferred editor for SVG files.

I also can’t get it to show up as an option in the Open With… context menu choice in Win7 64-bit.

Clues?

For me on windows 8.1, You need to select ‘Choose default Program’ and then ‘more options’ and then at the bottom (if Inkscape doesn’t already appear) browse to find inkscape.exe, probably in Program Files.

HTH

Paul
