FBX textures not supported? #8

Are textures in FBX files supported? I made sure that the paths to the texture files were correct in the FBX, and they show up just fine in Autodesk FBX Viewer. Unfortunately they are absent from the thumbnails. I see that you have a screenshot on your project home page showing materials in an FBX file, so I was wondering if I missed something?

Repository with test FBX file + textures: https://github.com/user72356/test1

This is an ASCII FBX exported from Unity. Same problem with binary FBXs.

There was nothing in the Windows event log that indicated issues with Space Thumbnails.

Unfortunately, we currently do not support external textures for fbx files. This is a limitation of the windows thumbnails handler. For security reasons, we can't get the file path, so we can't find the location of the external texture.

It makes sense. So I exported another object from Unity, this time I embedded the textures, and they are still not visible in the thumbnail. I've updated the repo, you will find the same object exported in both ASCII and binary formats. Both of them have the textures embedded. Thanks!
