picture url shown in slicer(new)

i have a picture URL which Can be show in slicer(old) and tables but can not be show in slicer(new),why?

i compared the URL failed to show with others , the failed url has a whitespace in it,is that  a bug?

A URL must not contain a literal space. It must either be encoded using the percent-encoding or a different encoding that uses URL-safe characters (like application/x-www-form-urlencoded that uses + instead of %20 for spaces).

Yes,i choose the right cateory. And i find that only the URLs with whitesapce  can not be shown in new button slicer.

Fine,but it can be shown in the table or slicer (old). So i think maybe the new one can do so.
