Scaling preview results in pixel #94

Closed SieDa closed 4 years ago

Scaling the created diagram in the preview area results in pixels on fonts and lines and sometimes is hard to read in different than 100% presentations. Why does that happen, as the result of an export is always perfect, especially the svg output is able to scale up. I added a simple example. Is this related to eclipse or just how plantuml works or "just" using the wrong stuff to show (SVG)? grafik grafik

On top, sometimes it would be nice to have an additional scale button for the page-width / -height.

We only scale the generated png image (pixels), we don't generate SVG and (re)render.

We could provide an SVG viewer instead of using the image. But that should go into another issue.

This is something I'm considering. A very simple solution is to provide a web-based viewer in an embedded browser component, that can show the svg. This shouldn't be much work, at least not for the single diagram case.
