preview() doesn't work on Windows about luxor.jl

[Wedg]

Is this the same issue? I also can't get preview() to work in Jupyter.

When running

preview()

And when running

display("image/png", FileIO.load("drawing.png"))

I get the same error message:

MethodError: no method matching show(::IOContext{Base64.Base64EncodePipe}, ::MIME{Symbol("image/png")}, ::Array{RGB{FixedPointNumbers.Normed{UInt8,8}},2})
Closest candidates are:

But when running

display("image/png", read("drawing.png"))

I do get a display of the image - i.e. it works.

hi Michael. I'm sorry you're encountering problems. I've got no access to a Windows box so I've never been able to test it properly. One thing that could be done would be to try other packages that display things (plots, images, etc) to see whether the problem is lower down the stack or entirely within Luxor.jl code.

Might be better in release v1.1.1, made today.

It works! Thank you! I'm sure you can close the issue.
And thank you too for the Luxor package. It's awesome.

@Wedg thanks for the testing, am relieved to hear that it works!
