Description Jo 2015-05-28 21:12:21 UTC 
whenever i import a path (*.svg) file the browser shows no thumbnail.
Comment 1 Michael Schumacher 2015-06-06 10:24:20 UTC 
Can you attach a sample SVG file?
Comment 2 su-v 2015-06-06 11:30:43 UTC 
Reproduced with GIMP 2.8.14 from wgo, and with local builds (2.8.14, 2.9.1) on OS X 10.7.5: the file chooser dialog opened via context menu of the Paths dialog [1] does not have a thumbnail image, nor an option to enable it.

When opening an SVG file e.g. via 'File > Open' or 'File > Open as Layers', the file chooser dialog does show the thumbnail of the selected SVG file as expected (in all tested builds).

Ah, so is this about that whole right part of the chooser not being there at all?

AFAICT yes - see attached screenshot taken with official GIMP 2.8.14 for OS X from www.gimp.org.

The thumbnails (preview image) in the file chooser dialog via 'File > Open...' are ok for SVG files.
