Re: VB6 - Thumbnail view based on WIA 2.0
Well that's true but it is also entirely proprietary, including its file formats. Since WIA is meant for operating scanners and cameras and doing photo processing, and DWG files have draconian license requirements - it isn't surprising that these files are not supported.
As Wikipedia says:
There are no open source viewers for DWG files since the licensing of the libraries needed by lx-viewer now restricts their use to members of the Open Design Alliance.
"Open Design Alliance" being doublespeak for as-closed-as-it-gets cartel as far as I can tell.
