Frequently asked questions
Does this SVG viewer upload my file?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to a server.
How do I zoom without the page scrolling?
Use Ctrl (or Cmd) + mouse wheel / trackpad pinch to zoom. Regular scrolling will scroll the page as normal.
How do I pan around the SVG?
Drag to pan when zoomed in. You can also hold Space and drag to pan from anywhere, or use the middle mouse button.
What is the element picker?
Enable Pick and click an element to see its tag, id, class, fill, stroke, and bounding box (when available).
Why does the preview look different from my design tool?
Some SVGs rely on external fonts, CSS, or scripts. This viewer can strip scripts and event handlers for safety, which may change behavior. Toggle the safety options to compare.
