Hi,

 

Is there a setting in qgis3 to change the default browser used by processes?

For instance, qgis2web opens a webbrowser after exporting the webmap. In
qgis2.18 my default browser Firefox was opened. Now, qgis3.4.4 it opens IE.

 

According to Tom Chadwin (qgis2web) the plugin refers to a piece of Pyhton
code when opening the webbrowser:

The code which opens the browser when you export is:

 
<https://github.com/tomchadwin/qgis2web/blob/master/qgis2web/maindialog.py#L
342>
https://github.com/tomchadwin/qgis2web/blob/master/qgis2web/maindialog.py#L3
42

It uses the Python webbrowser module:

 <https://docs.python.org/3/library/webbrowser.html>
https://docs.python.org/3/library/webbrowser.html

 

I have no experience with pyhon, so I hope there is a setting somewhere to
choose my default browser. Besides that, I do hope qgis3 will simply follow
the default settings from the OS.

 

Kind regards.
