org-graph-view Current version relies on ImageMagick?

I'm using Emacs 28.x (from git). For some time now, Emacs has moved away from ImageMagick for viewing/manipulating images. When I try org-graph-view, I get: This Emacs does not appear to be built with ImageMagick SVG support. However, SVG files can indeed be displayed in Emacs.

Hi Eric,

You can comment out that check from the code. I'll be either removing it or making it conditional on the Emacs version.

Thanks.

I've commented the code out so that I do get a graph displayed. However, it is cropped and mouse actions do not seem to work properly. There may be differences in the behaviour between ImageMagick and native image support.

Thanks, I need more information like that from users. Can you be more specific about both of those issues? A screenshot of the cropping would be very helpful. And for the mouse actions, please be very specific: Do they work at all? Are some of the click areas misaligned? I get some misalignment in my usage as well, but I don't know what's causing it, whether it's a bug in Emacs or my own code.

Also, assuming you built that Emacs yourself: was it actually not built with ImageMagick support? What platform are you on? If you would happen to have time to rebuild Emacs with ImageMagick support and compare the results, that would be very helpful. If there are any bugs in Emacs's new, non-ImageMagick image support, it would be good if we could report them and get them fixed.

Thanks for your feedback.
