Adds zooming and panning capabilities to SVG files
SVG Navigator Extension
--------------------------------
You can access file URLs by going to Chrome's extension settings, and checking \"Allow access to file URLs\"
Usage
--------------------------------
Go to a website with an SVG file. The extension begins working on the SVG graphic and you may:
* Pan: click and drag or hold the space bar and drag the cursor to pan around the image
* Zoom in or out: use mouse scroll wheel
* Zoom: click and drag a zoom box of the desired area if enabled
* Zoom out: tap alt key
* 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.
If you want to view local files with this extension, you must enable \"Allow access to file URLs\" in Chrome's Extensions view.
