Change logo size Rapido 2.0

I'm currently testing out the new Rapido 2.0, and I'm interested in seeing how far I can come without coding.

First off is the logo. I have made the navigation a bit bigger through the website setting "Navigation -> Height".
Now, next I would like to make the logo bigger too. But it looks like it has a fixed size. Questions and thoughts around this.

1. Maybe you should add a posibility to change the logo size in website settings?
2. Maybe you should make it possible to upload SVG-files in the "Logo -> Image" website setting, then the logo could expand with the height of the navigation bar?
3. What is the best practice way to go ahead and make the logo size bigger, with as little coding as possible?

I know I could fix this in a way, but I'm interested in hearing from someone with experience with Rapido, how to solve this in the best way.

Hi Martin

The main reason we have not looked at this yet, is that earlier implementations of the header would not adjust well to different image sizes. But I think the case is different today.

1. Great idea. We will look into this. And I know the current implementation is also a challenge when fx. using square logos. Being able to configure it in Website settings would be a great solution.

2. Even though the image uploader does not support .svg, it is actually possible to use it for the logo. It scales a little differently than normal images, due to much different ways to implement them. We will try to finetune it further for the next release. But you can get crisp .svg logo images in Rapido 2.0

3. The default logo image has a forced height of 40px. Unfortunately the only current fix is to locate "height=40" in Master.cshtml and change to the required value. The small disadvantage, besides making changes to the template, here is that you may need to re-configure the navigation items height to make everything still look good in the header. But that is possible to do in website settings.

Hi Karsten

Thank you for your swift reply.
I think you have done a good job so far with Rapdio, and it really is a good boiler plate solution. Now it just have to get even better :)

Looking forward to the next release, I will keep posting my findings as I work through the different areas of Rapido.
