No more viewing of BAK and SV$ from 2011

I used "Advanced associations" a long time for BAK and SV$ and had no problems with files from AutoCAD 2006. With files from 2011 I can see DWG, but no more BAK and SV$. The settings are the same as before, and TC start the CADView-plugin - I can see all menus and commands. But all icons become grey (disabled), the drawing area is white.

Why?

Hello Peter.
We haven't found problems with AutoCAD 2010 .bak and .sv$ files. Please send us any such files from AutoCAD 2011 for testing. We have fixed earlier some issues with files created with AutoCAD 2011. So I suppose the problem won't occur with latest CADView version that is in pre-release stage currently.

Alexander.

Info for other users:
This is a problem with "auto-detection" of file-types. Fix-defined filetypes will be dispalyed.

This problem is not solved with "Version 8 trial". I installed version 8, set it back to "auto-detection" - and have the same problems.

Hello Peter.
The problem with auto detection of file types doesn't resolved in CADView 8.0. The problem is in development, we plan to provide a solution with one of future plugin versions.
