Completely freezes Rider Avalonia UI visual previewer when used

See original GitHub issue

New Avalonia project, using all the latest releases to day (fresh install of .Net Core, Rider, Avalonia etc…) running on a Mac.

New project, add this library using dotnet add command line, then in a axaml file add either <svg ... /> or <Image Source="{SvgImage ...}" /> and the visual previewer in Rider completely hangs and doesn’t work.

Comment it out and replace with <Image Path="image.png" /> and UI starts working again.

Tried restarts, remaking the application, and 2 machines, exactly the same issue.

Added comment to README so others can also find the workaround https://github.com/wieslawsoltes/Svg.Skia#avalonia-previewer

Awesome thanks that KeepAlive fixed it. Perhaps keep this open until its fixed somehow?

I added comment to README with the workaround, and I don’t think it’s easily fixable as it’s related to .netcoreapp model and dependency resolution, so way bigger issue than Avalonia.
