• Type: Wish
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: 1.14.0
• Fix Version/s: 1.15.0
• Component/s: Viewer Wicket
• Assignee: Daniel Keir Haywood

Description

Currently SVG images can be used:

• as Logo in the upper left corner (Wicket Menubar)
• on the Login Page (login.html)
• as favicon ("image/svg+xml", cf. ISIS-1115)

SVGs are not displayed

• on the welcome page

SVGs can be attached as Blobs, but they are displayed as bitmaps (by means of the Batik rasterizer) and do not scale. The rasterizer (of course) can not deal with animations (cf. attachment).
