> how to edit file extensions on uiq3?
Bookmark topic
guys, i searched on net for this, but i could only find something on a uiq3 development forum. so i couldnt understand anything. if you think, its impossible, core player can assign common files extensions like jpg, bmp, mp4 to itself.
i want to use it to run swf files directly from file browser. it could be able by assingning swf files to opera, i think.

Swf support for opera is available now.

how? i'm not telling about opening them in opera by giving the file adress to opera. click on the swf file on file explorer, then play it on opera.

Hmm I don't think that is possible now... Maybe I'm wrong though...
Try using coreplayer instead.

I think I understand what you want: to edit the file associations in the OS so that a .swf file 'opens with' Opera. This is a function lacking from the interface IMO, and not currently possible. It's a pity because I bet you can do it in WM, probably as easy as on the pc.
I personally would love to see this customisability implemented, as it would mean that one could open text files in jtext rather than quickword etc. rather than having to go the long way round and open the app first then select file - open...
I guess it must be technicaly possible, as the OS holds its preset associations somewhere, maybe some clever uiq hacker will work this out...

There was a recent
discussion over at my-symbian about the exact same topic, that is writing a program that changes file type associations. Unfortunately the conclusion was that, although it would be a nice addition, its use would be limited by the small number of available alternative viewer programs. So, the project was abandoned. Shall I re-think it?
