SVG Navigator - Chrome Extension
SVG Navigator is an extension for Google Chrome that adds pan and zoom features to existing SVG files on the web.
Usage
Go to a website with an SVG file. The extension begins working on the SVG graphic, and the user may:
- Pan: hold the space bar and drag the cursor to pan around the image
- Zoom: click and drag a zoom box of the desired area
- Zoom out: tap alt key
- Zoom in or out: use mouse scroll wheel
- Reset zoom: press escape
Trying to pan on an SVG by shift click and dragging currently causes undesirable panning; possibly a Google Chrome bug/feature.
