Hey,
I committed support for ImageMagick to gui yesterday, which adds SVG rendering
plus support for a whole pile of other formats.
(http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php)
A few notes:
- Vector images are rasterized at whatever resolution ImageMagick decides on -
it seems to work OK, but we could control it explicitly if needed, or render at
multiple resolutions.
- The alpha channel renders properly with SVG and raster formats, but not with
ps/eps/pdf (which ImageMagick delegates to Ghostscript) - you get a white
background. Ghostscript is too slow for interactive use anyway, IMHO.
- DPI/point size are correctly read from formats that support it.
- Multiple images are read from formats that support it. If you call
+imageRepsWithData: on an animated gif, it should return all of the frames.
Overall I think it turned out quite nicely, and should be handy for viewing
obscure / old image files.
