Before: expanding a Mermaid diagram opened the full-screen viewer with the diagram drawn tiny in the middle at 100%. The download button only saved an SVG.

After: at 100% the diagram is scaled to fill the viewer (keeping its aspect ratio), and zoom/reset work from there. The download button opens a menu with Image (.png) and Vector (.svg).

How:

  • Fit. The viewer put the SVG in a shrink-to-fit grid item, and Mermaid gives its SVG width="100%" plus an inline max-width at its natural size, so it rendered at (or below) that size. The wrapper is now an absolutely positioned box filling the viewer (symmetric insets clear the close button and zoom bar and keep zoom-around-pointer centred), the SVG is size-full, and the inline max-width is overridden. The viewBox (preserveAspectRatio meet) does the fitting for any diagram and viewport.
  • PNG. diagram/png.ts rasterizes the SVG at 2x on the diagram's page colour. The PNG is rendered from a variant with htmlLabels: false (SVG text instead of foreignObject, which taints the canvas in Safari), and Hanken Grotesk is embedded as a data URL so the text matches the preview. renderMermaid takes the option and includes it in its cache key.

Checked with pnpm check and in the dev server with Playwright: the flowchart fills the viewer at 100%, and both a flowchart and a sequence diagram download as PNGs with the right font.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added PNG downloads for diagrams, alongside the existing SVG option. PNG exports use the diagram’s background color and are rendered at high resolution.
  • Improvements
    • Updated diagram sizing and positioning in the viewer so diagrams fit more responsively. The 100% zoom setting now corresponds to fitting the diagram to the viewer.

The SVG sat in a shrink-to-fit box with Mermaid's inline max-width, so
100% meant the diagram's natural (small) size. Stretch the SVG to fill the
viewer and lift the inline max-width so its viewBox scales the drawing to fit.

Walkthrough

Diagram export adds PNG and SVG options. PNG export rerenders Mermaid without HTML labels, converts the SVG using the selected theme background, and downloads the result. The diagram viewer also changes its layout so the SVG fills the viewer.

Changes

Diagram export

Layer / File(s) Summary
Mermaid export rendering
src/features/markdown/render/diagram/mermaid.ts
The renderer exposes the selected theme’s background color and accepts an htmlLabels option. The option defaults to true and is included in the render cache key.
SVG-to-PNG conversion
src/features/markdown/render/diagram/png.ts
svgToPng reads the SVG viewBox dimensions, embeds available font CSS, and rasterizes the SVG onto a background-filled canvas. It rejects when dimensions, a 2D context, or a PNG blob are unavailable.
Diagram download actions
src/features/markdown/render/diagram/Diagram.tsx
The download menu offers PNG and SVG. PNG export rerenders with HTML labels disabled, converts the SVG using the theme background, and shows an error toast if export fails. SVG retains its existing download behavior.

Diagram viewer layout

Layer / File(s) Summary
Viewer and SVG fitting
src/features/markdown/render/diagram/PanZoom.tsx
The interaction surface is relatively positioned. The SVG fills a responsive inset container without Mermaid’s inline maximum width constraint. The comment describes 100% zoom as fitting the diagram to the viewer.

PNG downloads may fail in Safari for diagrams that enable HTML labels in their configuration. Make the export setting authoritative before merging, or accept this bounded risk.

The diagram's download button opens a menu with Image (.png) and Vector
(.svg). The PNG is rendered at 2x on the diagram's page color, with
Mermaid labels as SVG text (foreignObject taints the canvas in Safari) and
Hanken Grotesk embedded so the text matches the preview.
