[Bioperl-l] SVG output with Bio::Graphics::Panel fails

[Jonathan Crabtree]

Sendu-

I believe you must set 'image_class' to 'GD::SVG' when you create the 
Panel (and note that older versions of Bio::Graphics::Panel don't know 
anything about this parameter.)  Here's the relevant part of the Panel 
perldoc:

   -image_class To create output in scalable vector
                graphics (SVG), optionally pass the image
                class parameter 'GD::SVG'. Defaults to
                using vanilla GD. See the corresponding
                image_class() method below for details.
