Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki, SVG and Apache Batik

2016-04-22 Thread dullfig 
well there are a couple of issues here. First, there are still browsers that 
don’t support svg (although they are only a few and not the main ones). Second, 
there is a bug in the SVG macro that prevents links in certain browsers, like 
Chrome. So if SVG support was native and transparent, then your experience 
would be even across the board.

Hello Dan, 

I believe the Batik library is used for printing to PDF only, but I 
could well be wrong. 

You can use an SVG image that you upload as you would upload a png 
image.  This will simply embed it within the html page and let the 
browser render it. This works since recent versions of XWiki (maybe 6?). 
I doubt this uses Batik. 

Isn't that sufficient? 
At least, to my eyes,  this is a very important use case for all the 
technical documentation we write.

Hello Dan,

I believe the Batik library is used for printing to PDF only, but I
could well be wrong.

You can use an SVG image that you upload as you would upload a png
image.  This will simply embed it within the html page and let the
browser render it. This works since recent versions of XWiki (maybe 6?).
I doubt this uses Batik.

Isn't that sufficient?
At least, to my eyes,  this is a very important use case for all the
