ok I recently installed Cura 4.8 App image with appimageLauncher.
Cura is a 3D slicing program, for preparing 3D models to be printed on a 3D printer.
i’ve used the program for years, never had an issue before, usually installed it as mentioned above, the App-image, through AppimageLauncher. Never before had it do this
somehow though, this time, Cura became the default viewer for ALL image file types
I like Gwenview
I’m a fan of Gwenview
it handles my needs nicely
I would like to make Gwenview my default image viewer, for, well, everything
I’m not sure how to accomplish this without going to file associations, and click on each and every file type individually, which would be a tedious pain in the ass.
Do I have any other options here?
Yeah, I saw that:
I CAN do them one at a time, but there’s a LOT of image file types, if I have to do it one at a time I will, but I figured it was worth asking.
Thank you for trying to help love the quick responses in this community
I don’t have this answer but what would be neat is to use the terminal and just type what file types you want to open with that program, then you could probably enter these in one go instead of clicking your way through.
Try krunner kcmshell5 filetypes
(you can also go into settings and find File Associations).
For a superb QUICK viewing app (with the option to , I’d suggest qimgv - with Gwenview being more of a ‘swiss army knife’ it usually comes in second.
I tried some -looking at JPEG I see
qimgv
Gwenview
GIMP
Darktable
qView
qView lost out to qimgv. The main failings of these is that you can’t go straight to a context ‘open in GIMP’ or something like that (though you can open the folder).
I understand your point though, you cannot select the IMAGE category and assign the whole shebang in one go.
It might be worth looking back in timeshift snapshots to see what changed after you modified the settings.
