Wbar does not display SVG icon, even though in the settings does show it.

Look under usr/share/pixmaps/puppy/

Under tahrPup64

live,

I ran across this too just the other day setting up Wbar in the latest Just Lighthouse (JL64-700.2). I found this when Googling:

"...svg is a vector based image format, so it'll scale to any size without pixelating. The downside that it takes more CPU power to render the image, so png is slightly there. Though for icon-sized images that shouldn't be very noticeable. The "biggest" problem with svg is that not all applications support it, while they do support bitmap formats such as png."

So if this is an "application" problem, and WBAR is an application, is it possible it is not a puppy- and/or puppy-inspired problem?? I don't know. I ended up finding a "png" icon to do what I wanted with WBAR & just ignored the svg icon files.
