SVG inside table cell is stretched forcefully about fpdf2 HOT 6 CLOSED

Seems like I might have misformulated the issue.
I am looking for a way for SVG to be displayed in original size (e.g. 16x16) no matter what the cell's size is (e.g. prevent stretching in any direction, regardless of cell size)
Is there a way to achieve this ?

Oh, you mean to keep the original aspect ratio?

I think we fixed that recently.
Could you please test if you still get this problem when using the latest version of fpdf2 from this repository master branch?

pip install git+https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2.git@master

from fpdf2.

Exactly!
Thanks for the hint, the master branch tip works perfectly!

Great 🙂
We are planning to perform a new release of fpdf2 shortly

Hi @glebarez

One way to render images at a bigger size is simply to pass img_fill_width=True to Row.cell():

    row.cell(img="check.svg", img_fill_width=True)

Another way can be to extend the row height by introducing more newlines in text cells.

Also, to have full control over the table rendering logic, you could subclass fpdf.table.Table:

from dataclasses import replace
from fpdf import FPDF
from fpdf.table import Table

MIN_HEIGHT = 50

class TableWithMinRowHeight(Table):
    def _render_table_cell(self, *args, cell_height_info=None, **kwargs):
        if cell_height_info and cell_height_info.height < MIN_HEIGHT:
            cell_height_info = replace(cell_height_info, height=MIN_HEIGHT)
        return super()._render_table_cell(*args, cell_height_info=cell_height_info, **kwargs)

pdf = FPDF()
pdf.add_page()
pdf.set_font("helvetica")
table = TableWithMinRowHeight(pdf, first_row_as_headings=False)
row = table.row()
row.cell("some text")
row.cell(img="check.svg")
table.render()
pdf.output("issue_1059.pdf")

And finally, you could make a contribution to fpdf2, for example to introduce a new optional min_height parameter to Table.row() 😊

Do you have other questions, or are those information enough to solve your problem?
