On my system, I only have dvisvg. When I normally open the TexMaths-Dialog, it correctly notices that and generates an svg. When I try to create by selecting text, it chooses dvipng without checking, prompting me with an error.

    Works for me.
    What is your system, LibreOffice version, TexMaths version?
    Could you attach a screenshot of the TexMaths configure dialog?
    Thanks.

    System: Ubuntu 18.04 4.15.0-70-generic
    LibreOffice: Version 6.3.3.2, Build ID: 1:6.3.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1; CPU threads: 8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Calc: threaded
    TexMaths: 0.48

    Just tested on my Laptop (identical setup), there it worked.
    On my Laptop the options were definitely filled automatically, on my desktop I'm not sure.

      I have the same system, LO and TexMaths version as you.
      I uninstalled the dvipng and texlive-xetex packages (to have the same setup as you), but it changed nothing.
      Could you try again with a fresh LO profile?

        I renamed ~/.config/libreoffice and reinstalled texmaths, it worked. Any idea why it wouldn't work in my old setup?

          After a bit of testing, I noticed that removing ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/TexMaths/TexMaths.cfg solves the problem. Also, this file isn't recreated, maybe it was a relic from an older version and interfering with the newer options? Maybe because of this line: FileFormat=png

            Yes, it is probably from an older version. I can't even remember the purpose of that file.
            Glad to see it works now as expected!
