[Bug]: loading.svg VS loading.gif

[gioman]

What is the bug? (in English)

I noticed that in recent versions of LMWC the animated logo that shows at a project load has moved from an animated gif to an animated svg, I guess for the better quality and smaller size that svg gives.

Anyway there are a few observations to make:

• it is very hard (at least for me) to understand how to create an animated SVG, I found basically zero documentation and tools about how to create one of them

• if "loading.svg" is missing then LMWC do not seems to fall back using "loading.gif"

• I tried to cheat my way in using an animated gif instead of a animated svg, by renaming loading.gif to loading.svg, and this seems to work on firefox but not on chrome

if "loading.svg" is missing then LMWC do not seems to fall back using "loading.gif"

According to the code in Lizmap, the only way is to override the value img/loading.svg :

It's possible to create a theme. It's less convenient indeed.
