In fact slideshow works when I add the width and height parameters in the
top level svg element. Are those parameters required in the SVG
recommendation or is it a bug/limitation of slideshow?

Another issue is that I can't run animated SVG within batik slideshow
whereas the animation works within squiggle. Does slideshow support animated
SVG or is it another limitation of this tool?

Finally is it possible to make slideshow reload the SVG file automatically
each time this one is modified?

Thank you for your reply,
Gonzague Reydet.
