Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.7) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: GCC-4.1.2 OS: Linux IIRC, KDE used to work with animated icons. If I try to use an MNG icon for a folder, I get the "unknown" icon. However, the "Embedable Image View" displays the icon OK and the animation works. I also tried this with KDECore r670334 to make sure that I didn't break it. Same results.
What is the status on dolphin? Sincerly I've no .mng files to check this issue.
Reports about file management mode reported against KDE 3 (konqueror) has been closed: konqueror in KDE 3 is no more developed and mantained. All bugs and wishes which could be interesting for Dolphin in KDE 4 (the new KDE file manager) has been collected into a specific list. Please try the new file manager before request new features and report bugs. Before submitting new reports check carefully the already opened Dolphin reports in order to don't add duplicates. Many thanks.
