    Maybe I installed something or wrote a script that I forgot about (happens cause super sleep deprived from disability, broken neck and back), or maybe it is a fedora thing (I think it is this), but yeah, if I change the suffix it also changes the model file automatically. If it can’t do the change it will tack on the additional suffix. So like if I try to rename image.jpg to image.png, it just does it, but if I rename image.jpg to image.svg it will automatically rename to image.svg.jpg to let me know that it does not work.

      Hm…ok, never heard of that - at least not without extra programs

      Does that also work from the terminal or only inside your file browser?

      Because, as said, Linux usually doesn’t care that much about suffixes, but much more about the file type in the file header.
      At least that’s my experience and what I’ve read.

      But thanks for the info.
      Not sure, if I’d like to have it though or rather not ;⁠-⁠)

      Edit: and out of interest, what happens, when you rename it to something “near” like an svg or pdf, or something completely different like a mp3 - or interesting would also be a video format, if you only get a single frame then
      Thanks, I’ve never heard of that and would really like to know what does it and how it’s coping with things, that aren’t compatible - or are harder to convert
