Teach Windows to Display .dxf File Image in Icons?

Post by Chips&Chips » Mon Feb 12, 2024 2:07 pm

Probably not easy, but is there any way to teach Windows how to display an image of the .dxf file in the icons of File Explorer? I mean without drawing or creating a separate image in a Windows friendly file format, of course.

Yes, Microsoft itself offers tools (for free) to do just that. :wink:

This question isn't Qcad related - I'll move the topic to chat.
