Re: Opening .svg files
Unless you named the SVG file exactly as the SH3D file (including the file extension), I don't see how the two facts could be linked to each other !
Please send me your SH3D file, I'll try to fix it.

Re: Opening .svg files
While SH3D will export to SVG 2D drawing, it is not possible to import SVG directly. One workaround is to convert the SVG to a raster image (Inkscape/theGimp - or a full-screen browser screenshot) and use as background image.

PS - depending on the SVG file, you may be able to rip apart the co-ordinates of the SVG and transfer more or less manually to the home.xml file - see for instance thread 7674.
