That's not a Truevision (TGA) file, but a Windows Cursor file. Rename from *.tga to *.cur, and it loads correctly. I cannot change the file extension. This is a texture for Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 and it needs to have a tga extension. Besides file, irfan view and xnview disagree with you. All of them think this picture is indeed a truevision targa file. Besides gwenview can obviously read the picture or it wouldnt be able to show a preview. Can reproduce the problem using Gentoo but fine in Arch, so probably a Qt installation problem. I can reproduce the problem in OpenSuSE 13.1 (Gwenview 4.11.4, KDE 4.11.5, QT 4.8.5) with both my own files and the example file. Changing the extension of the files to .cur causes them to disappear from Gwenview completely. However, simply removing the file extension works to display the file. With no file extension, Gwenview displays the image and outputs to the command line: ''' gwenview(6588) Gwenview::ViewMainPage::url: Condition ' d->currentView() ' failed. ''' But this error happens every time the image is scrolled in the main picture frame, and so may be unrelated. For a guess, I would say that there are two ways to load a file - one based on the extension and the other based on the file type. And the extension loader is failing. -A This still happens with gwenview 4.14.0 pre. Additionally the console shows the following message: gwenview(11569) Gwenview::LoadingDocumentImplPrivate::loadMetaInfo: QImageReader::read() using format hint "tga" failed: "Unknown error" gwenview(11569) Gwenview::LoadingDocumentImplPrivate::loadMetaInfo: Image format is actually "tga" not "tga" Gwenview is now able to open this image, but its .desktop file doesn't indicate that Gwenview can open Targa images. Let's fix that. author Nathaniel Graham <pointedstick@zoho.com> 2017-11-27 21:12:11 (GMT) committer Nathaniel Graham <pointedstick@zoho.com> 2017-11-27 21:12:25 (GMT) commit 3d4dfd9f3a5bd805b4883417001d221017659788 (patch) tree 7548d55a3de31738d1e971b8230f1c4bd163ca04 parent 9056aa941e0d624094ef2762e9bbb705e56f753e (diff) Indicate that Gwenview can open Targa imagesApplications/17.12 Summary: BUG: 332485 Test Plan: After updating the .desktop files and running `sudo update-desktop-database`, Gwenview was correctly registered as a handler for .tga files, and they opened and displayed exactly as they should.
