@nopcoder, when you get some time, could you please take a look at this PR? Thanks! |

Thanks for the PR @kushalShukla-web — the implementation is clean, but we've decided not to take it for now. TIFF isn't natively renderable in the major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge), so previewing it means shipping a decoder in the web UI bundle, and we'd rather not add a format-specific dependency for that at this point. If demand for image previews beyond what browsers handle natively grows, we'll revisit it. Sorry for the outcome after the work you put in — we appreciate it, and would be glad to have you on other issues. |
Closes #10507
Change Description
Background
This PR adds support for rendering TIFF image files in the web UI. Previously, TIFF files could not be previewed directly in the browser and had to be downloaded. With this change, users can view
.tifand.tifffiles directly in the browser using the existing file viewer.
