This is actually a bug. Here is an explanation:

Usually, Sozi can be notified when an SVG file changes, so that it can reload it automatically.
It did not work in your case, for some reason yet to be determined.
In that situation, Sozi was supposed to show a warning message, but there was an error that prevented it and broke the loading process.

This is fixed in Sozi 21.04.30.

When you try it, you are likely to see a warning message "This file will not be reloaded on change", but everything else should work as expected.

Hi,
I confirm all what you wrote : it 21.04.30 version loads the svg file, and I do get the warning.
FYI, the file was located on network folder, and when I moved it to a local drive I didn't get the warning anymore.
Thank you very much for being so reactive.
