GDL icon issues

Anonymous

Hello,

I changed my computer and again got the same issues concerning
the icons of the GDL objects. The preview was a nice "Quick Time" icon
. I therefore changed the file types in "folder options" and now get a GDL icon but still without preview. Really not handy to review
the objects...
Any idea ?
regards

Hello,

Well it has been a while since I had to do anything on a Windows box but if you open the QuickTime Preferences > MIME Settings > Audio - Audio only file formats > uncheck GSM audio. This is the same on a Mac but for whatever reason it always seems to recheck itself somehow.

Hope this helps.

Hello Jeffrey,

I did the test and so far that does not change anything.
(at least on Windows XP)
I still have my GDL icons displayed properly.
But if the archicad GDL component is not well installed
I guess it may solve the problem as well.
Thanks for your help
