Bug 31510 – SVG flowchart renders clipped @ fightingfantasy.org (as reported by daringfireball)

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: DUPLICATE
• Component: SVG

[Geoffrey Garen]

To reproduce:
1. Navigate to http://outspaced.fightingfantasy.org/SVG_Flowcharts/main.html
2. Click a link to an SVG flowchart, like this one: http://outspaced.fightingfantasy.org/SVG_Flowcharts/ff01.svgz
--> Notice that the flowchart renders clipped, and not scrollable.

It is hard to tell, but I believe this behaves correctly according to the svg spec, which states:

"The initial value for 'overflow' as defined in [CSS2-overflow] is 'visible'; however, SVG's user agent style sheet overrides this initial value and set the 'overflow' property on elements that establish new viewports (e.g., 'svg' elements), 'pattern' elements and 'marker' elements to the value 'hidden'." (http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/masking.html#OverflowProperty).

In this case, it is the root element (the 'svg' element) that has overflow:hidden which is what causes no scrollbars to appear.

Is this different from bug 11225?
