Hi Walter, what about if imageviewer is the default activity for showing svg's? Would that makes more sense?

Perhaps Imageviewer (which also doesn't seem to know about image/svg-xml) should be the default. But certainly Paint, which changes the format from SVG to PNG should not be the default. And you definitely want to be able to open SVGs in Browse, if only to be able to take advantage of View Source.

The issues of which activity is open by default is fixed on paint, nevertheless browse should open SVG files fixed on my clone

closing.
All that is needed is to add image/svg+xml to the mime_types list in activity.info
Any chance this could be done sooner than later, as it great enhances the save SVG capability of Turtle Art to have a way of viewing SVG files in Sugar.
