Hello amazing Krita devs, Today I was trying to open a .WEBP file with Krita, but MacOS was giving me a very hard time since Krita does not specify that it can handle that file format: https://i.imgur.com/4ynOCeJ.png Krita can very easily open the .WEBP file if I open Krita first, then select my file through Krita's file chooser dialog: https://i.imgur.com/kMvdJ41.png STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Download a .WEBP file (example link - not guaranteed to be up forever; https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/mergeclash/images/1/12/Playstore.png/revision/latest?cb=20210729183740) 2. In Finder, Right click the .WEBP file -> Open With -> Other 3. Find Krita 4. Observe you can't open it unless you disable "Recommended Applications" OBSERVED RESULT * MacOS does not know Krita can open .WEBP formats EXPECTED RESULT * In MacOS' Finder, Krita should be known as an app that can handle .WEBP formats (like it is for PNG/JPG) * Working example of what it looks like for PNG: https://i.imgur.com/HA0kV11.png SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS macOS: macOS Big Sur 11.5 - Apple M1
Yes, the author of the webp plugin hasn't added it to the Info.plist.template. Assigning, they are also macOS users :-)
