SVG files now open as real vector drawings you can also edit. Preview shows the drawing at its true size and stays sharp however far you zoom in. Source is the normal code editor. Every image viewer now pans when you drag it with a grab-hand cursor, instead of opening a second popup viewer when you click.

What Changed

SVG files (#22484, desktop half of #23629)

  • Before: .svg opened in the photo viewer. For an SVG with no width/height, the viewer used Chromium's 300px default, so "100%" and the size readout were wrong. The drawing could never be enlarged to fill the pane. The XML could not be viewed or edited.
  • After: .svg opens as text with a Preview | Source | Changes toggle, and Preview is the default. Preview sizes the drawing from absolute width/height, else from the viewBox (src/shared/svg-document.ts). Fit can enlarge vectors to fill the pane, and the drawing is redrawn at every zoom level. A Preview reflects unsaved Source edits.
  • The SVG is drawn through a blob URL in an <img>, so scripts inside it never run.

Image viewer (all images)

  • Clicking an image no longer opens a second viewer. Drag pans, with grab and grabbing cursors. The wheel or trackpad pans, and Ctrl/pinch zooms at the cursor. Panning stops at the image's edges, and an image that fits stays centered.
  • The footer, which matches the PDF viewer, has Zoom out / Fit / Zoom in / Actual size. The percentage now means real pixels, not "relative to fit". Cmd/Ctrl + - 0 still work through the existing viewer-zoom routing.
  • In combined diffs, images keep their own size and get a hover Expand button. It opens the same pan/zoom dialog that Mermaid and chat images use (ImageViewerPopup is deleted).
  • One engine drives everything: usePanZoomViewport and PanZoomImageSurface are extracted from PanZoomImageDialog. The old scroll-offset zoom code (image-viewer-dom-zoom.ts) is removed.

Plugins

  • Text-mode custom editors for .svg now receive the markup. Before, they got the image viewer, because SVG loaded as image bytes.
  • A bytes-mode custom editor for .svg (none exists in the catalog or examples) is no longer offered. Offering it beside the Source text let two drafts compete for one save.
  • A plugin's "Adds" row warns when its editor opens files that Orca otherwise shows in its own image/PDF/media viewer. Example: "Editor · .svg · Opens .svg instead of Orca's viewer". It says "May open" when only a catalog summary is known. option-priority editors and file types Orca has no viewer for show no warning. Orca's own view stays in the view toggle beside the plugin.

Copy as PNG (from #24189)

  • The expanded pan/zoom dialog (Mermaid, diff images, chat images) has a Copy as PNG button. It rasterizes at 2×, shrunk to the clipboard's pixel budget and Chromium's canvas limit, on the diagram's theme background so light-on-dark diagrams stay readable when pasted. Adapted from the Feat/mermaid viewer #24189 contributor's code.
  • The web client's writeClipboardImage was a silent no-op; it now writes the PNG through the async Clipboard API.

Mechanism / compatibility

  • The conversion happens in the renderer (readRuntimeFileContent): for .svg, it skips the range-preview URL and decodes the host's base64 bytes to UTF-8 text. Hosts are unchanged, so older local, SSH and paired-runtime hosts all work. Bytes that are not UTF-8, such as an .svgz misnamed .svg, fall back to the image path. A byte order mark is preserved, so saving doesn't strip it.
  • The views are chosen by getEditorViewLanguage(), which treats SVG as svg. Monaco keeps XML highlighting, and isCodeViewTab agrees with the render model.

Why

The image viewer was built for bitmaps, but an SVG is a text document with its own coordinate system. Treating it like markdown and Mermaid (Source plus a rendered view) makes both editing and viewing correct, and reuses the pan/zoom viewer we already have. This replaces the scroll-based zoom, which could only pan with scrollbars.

Hardening from cross-review (two Codex GPT 6.1 Sol xhigh passes)

  • A zoomed image stays against the pane's edges when the pane or window resizes (split, floating panel, window).
  • Reminting a media URL (a new ?revision=) keeps the image's size, so zoom and pan survive a refresh. Main had the same rule.
  • A vector fitted far above its natural size (a 24 px icon at 3696%) can zoom out to Actual size. The minimum zoom used to stop at 25% of fit.
  • Zoom keys pressed before an image has loaded are applied once it has, so both sides of an image diff stay in step.
  • Copy as PNG requests CORS for web images, so a CORS-enabled image doesn't taint the canvas.
  • Each fix has a regression test (pan-zoom-view.test.ts, image-viewer-zoom-ownership.test.tsx), and each new test fails without its fix.
  • Known, as for every text file: a remote host decodes text files as UTF-8, so a non-UTF-8 SVG (it must declare encoding="ISO-8859-1") shows replacement characters in Source, like a Latin-1 .xml does today.

Visual Proof

SVG with only a viewBox (1200 × 240) at its real size, with the Source / Preview / Changes toggle:

logo.svg preview

A 24 × 24 icon fitted up to the pane (3696%), then Source:

icon fitted
icon source

Zoomed far past the old 8× cap, still sharp:

icon zoomed

Copy as PNG from the expanded Mermaid viewer (toast bottom-right), and the PNG it put on the clipboard (975 × 328, 2×, theme background):

copy as png
clipboard png

PNG after a click (no popup), zoom in and drag:

png pan

Before: see the screenshots in #22484 (SVG stuck loading) and #23629 (300px sizing).

Testing

  • Dev build (macOS, ORCA_BACKGROUND_LAUNCH=1, driven over CDP): opened a viewBox-only SVG, a 24×24 icon, a 1600×900 PNG and a markdown file. Checked the toggle, fit, ctrl-wheel zoom at the cursor, drag pan (cursor reads grabbing), Fit, Source, and that a click on an image opens no dialog.
  • New tests: SVG size rules and base64 decoding (svg-document.test.ts), SVG read as text even when a viewer asks for a URL (runtime-file-client.test.ts), pan containment (pan-zoom-view.test.ts), plugin takeover rows (plugin-contributions.test.ts). The zoom-ownership tests were updated for the expand dialog.
  • pnpm tc, oxlint, and pnpm test:changed passed: 3,130 files and 29,424 tests, with the two DiagramViewerModal failures fixed by keeping the dialog's original pan behavior.
  • Copy as PNG: clicked in the dev build, then read the macOS clipboard back (PNG, 975 × 328). image-png-export.test.ts covers the size budget.
  • New strings are translated into all 10 shipped locales.
  • Dev build after the review fixes, driven over CDP: the 24 × 24 icon fits at 3696%, and Actual size reaches 100% (the button then disables). A 1600 × 900 PNG zoomed to 225% and dragged to its right edge keeps 0 px of blank space when the window widens by 400 px.

Review comments at @src/renderer/src/runtime/runtime-file-read-client.ts:
- Line 54: **Do not return lossy SVG text as editable content.**

If an SVG read returns text containing U+FFFD over SSH, this retry does not
request a range preview: `readRuntimeFileContentAsStored` omits `rangePreview`
when `connectionId` is set. The retry can return the same lossy text as editable
content. Saving it can replace the original bytes. Decode the original bytes
through a supported byte-read route, or keep the file out of the editable text
path when that route is unavailable.
([raw.githubusercontent.com](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stablyai/orca/7f188a974d1214341f3b0ac1dfbb6849b9af2149/src/renderer/src/runtime/runtime-file-read-client.ts))
- Line 51: **Keep an oversized-binary fallback for remote SVG reads.**

When a remote host rejects an SVG through `files.read` and its
`files.readPreview` response exceeds the preview limit, `pageOversizedBinary:
false` causes `readRemoteFilePreview` to throw `file_too_large` instead of
paging the bytes. The editor then shows a load error before it can decode or
preview the SVG. Retain a chunked-byte or media-preview fallback for this case.

Walkthrough

SVG files can now be read as editable markup and opened in source or rich view. Image previews use shared pan-and-zoom controls, and the image dialog can copy previews as PNG. Custom-editor contribution rows now identify when an editor may replace a built-in viewer.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 7f188

Opening SVG files over SSH can overwrite the original file's bytes with lossy text on save. Large remote SVGs can fail to load. The expanded image viewer and Copy as PNG cannot be opened from regular editor image and SVG previews. These should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Several smaller polish issues in the viewer and plugin descriptions remain open.

Explanation

The description is complete and aligned with the repository template. It includes ELI5, scope, rationale, linked issues, visual proof, testing details, platform limitations, and validation results. The AI Disclosure, Review, Notes, and Checklist sections are not completed, but the required change and verification information is present.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

[ #22484 ] is implemented: SVG files use editable Source content, a Preview view, and tests for SVG decoding and sizing. [#32124] is implemented for the shared editor image dialog: ImageViewerPopup is removed, and PanZoomImageDialog uses shared pan/zoom behavior for editor and diff images. However, #32124 states that the inline preview and its footer zoom controls stay unchanged, and that inline drag panning is out of scope. This PR changes ImageViewer to use the new pan/zoom surfaces and changes the inline controls to Fit and Actual size. The implementation does not meet that linked requirement.

Resolution

Keep the inline image preview and its footer zoom behavior unchanged. Limit the shared PanZoomImageDialog migration and drag-pan behavior to the popup, diff, and conflict-review surfaces required by #32124.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The PR adds Copy as PNG, PNG rasterization, and web clipboard writes. The PR identifies this work as originating from #24189, but #22484 and #32124 do not require clipboard export. The PR also adds plugin takeover warnings, which are not required to provide an SVG editor or to migrate the editor popup to the shared viewer.

Resolution

Move Copy as PNG and its clipboard implementation to the linked issue that requires it. Remove plugin takeover warnings from this change, or link a directly applicable coding requirement that establishes their scope.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 52.78% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 36 functions across 35 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Render raster data URIs at 1x for Copy as PNG.

imagePngLayout applies the 2x ratio to every source. The Copy as PNG action is enabled for any dialog source with a known size. Combined-diff images pass PNG, JPEG, GIF, and WebP data URIs into this dialog. For these rasters, the 2x ratio scales the bitmap to twice its width and height. The copied image has four times the pixels and no added detail, so it is softer than the source. Use the 2x ratio for vector sources only. Raster data URIs keep their native size.

Proposed fix
+const RASTER_DATA_URI = /^data:image\/(?:png|jpe?g|gif|webp);/
+
 export function imagePngLayout(
   size: PanZoomSize,
-  maxPixels = CLIPBOARD_IMAGE_MAX_PIXELS
+  maxPixels = CLIPBOARD_IMAGE_MAX_PIXELS,
+  preferredPixelRatio = PREFERRED_PIXEL_RATIO
 ): ImagePngLayout | null {
   if (!(size.width > 0 && size.height > 0)) {
     return null
   }
   const pixelRatio = Math.min(
-    PREFERRED_PIXEL_RATIO,
+    preferredPixelRatio,
     Math.sqrt(maxPixels / (size.width * size.height)),
     MAX_CANVAS_SIDE / Math.max(size.width, size.height)
   )
-  const layout = imagePngLayout(size)
+  const layout = imagePngLayout(
+    size,
+    undefined,
+    RASTER_DATA_URI.test(src) ? 1 : PREFERRED_PIXEL_RATIO
+  )

Blob URLs still use the 2x ratio, because their type cannot be read from the string.

Check the image size before the clipboard write.

On desktop, an image whose base64 payload exceeds the 24 MiB limit makes the main-process handler return without writing. The renderer still resolves the call, so the dialog shows "Copied as PNG" while the clipboard is unchanged. The pixel limit does not bound the encoded size, so a large photographic PNG can reach this case.

Check the length in the renderer before the IPC call. A thrown error then reaches the existing catch and shows the failure toast.

Include exact filenames in takeover warnings.

customEditorTakeover reads only editor.extensions. An editor that lists a previewable file only in filenames, such as diagram.svg, can take over that file, but the helper returns null. The row then shows no takeover text and no warning tone.

The helper should also check previewable filenames and pass both groups to fileList.

Outside diff Allow actual size for upscaled SVGs.

38-38: Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Allow actual size for upscaled SVGs.

When a small SVG has fitScale > 4, showActualSize requests a zoom below this 0.25 minimum. For a 24 × 24 SVG in an 800 × 600 viewport, the control stops near 592% instead of 100%. Zoom out cannot reach 100% either. Set the effective minimum to Math.min(MIN_IMAGE_VIEWER_ZOOM, 1 / fitScale), and use that minimum for canZoomOut. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Major · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Restore an expand action for the default image layout.

EditorEditFileSurface opens ordinary images with the default fill layout. FilledImage provides no way to open PanZoomImageDialog; only IntrinsicImage renders that dialog. As a result, ordinary image and SVG previews cannot use the expanded viewer or its Copy as PNG action. Add an expand control to FilledImage and connect it to PanZoomImageDialog.

Keep an oversized-binary fallback for remote SVG reads.

When a remote host rejects an SVG through files.read and its files.readPreview response exceeds the preview limit, pageOversizedBinary: false causes readRemoteFilePreview to throw file_too_large instead of paging the bytes. The editor then shows a load error before it can decode or preview the SVG. Retain a chunked-byte or media-preview fallback for this case.

const result = await readRuntimeFileContentAsStored({ ...args, pageOversizedBinary: false })
if (!result.isBinary) {
// A host decodes text as lossy UTF-8; a non-UTF-8 SVG keeps the image path so its bytes survive.
return result.content.includes('\uFFFD') ? readRuntimeFileContentAsStored(args) : result

Do not return lossy SVG text as editable content.

If an SVG read returns text containing U+FFFD over SSH, this retry does not request a range preview: readRuntimeFileContentAsStored omits rangePreview when connectionId is set. The retry can return the same lossy text as editable content. Saving it can replace the original bytes. Decode the original bytes through a supported byte-read route, or keep the file out of the editable text path when that route is unavailable. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

…images by dragging

- .svg opens as text with Preview | Source | Changes. Preview sizes the drawing
  from its width/height/viewBox instead of Chromium's 300px default, fits up to
  fill the pane, and stays sharp at any zoom.
- The image viewer pans by dragging (grab cursor) and by wheel, zooms at the
  cursor, and gains Fit and Actual size. Clicking no longer opens a popup.
- Combined-diff images expand into the shared pan and zoom viewer.
- Text plugin editors for .svg now receive the markup.
- The plugin page warns when an editor opens files in place of Orca's viewer.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
- A host that can only decode an SVG lossily keeps the image path, so non-UTF-8 bytes survive.
- Bytes custom editors stay available on SVG files, now that they open as text.
- A reminted media URL keeps the image's size and zoom.
- A vector fitted far above its natural size can zoom out to actual size.
- Zoom commands that arrive before an image loads are applied once it does, keeping diff sides in step.
- Copy as PNG requests CORS for web images so the canvas is not tainted.
Keeping a bytes editor beside the Source text let two drafts compete, and the
U+FFFD check could not tell lossy decoding from a real replacement character.
SVG now reads like every other text file.
