I apologize, Tim, I was indeed wrong on that point. I had long ago installed an extension that adds context functionality (including zooming) for rasters [1]. Having forgotten about it, I mistakenly assumed that this was the default bahavior for rasters. I do agree, then, that it is more consistent to users to have the same behavior for all images right out of the box. It shouldn't matter to them what the image format is. That said, I guess I'll just make an extension to do the same for SVG. Extensions rock! [1] Image Zoom by Jason Adams http://imagezoom.yellowgorilla.net/ Regards- Doug
