Triggered auto assignment to @sakluger (Bug), see https://stackoverflow.com/c/expensify/questions/14418 for more details.

@sakluger I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors.

[sakluger]

@Expensify/design this is a bug, right? I assume we want images to be vertically center-aligned.

[shawnborton]

Hmm I'm not entirely sure... it's a PDF, and I think I would expect viewing a document to be aligned to the top. Curious what others think though.

[shawnborton]

@izarutskaya can you help us understand why you decided that this was a bug?

[dannymcclain]

I'm honestly not sure about this one. It looks like if a PDF will fit in the viewport, we center it. If it's too long, we align it to the top and let you scroll to see the whole thing?

[shawnborton]

Yeah that's fair... this is also a super tricky PDF because the PDF itself is cropped:

[dannymcclain]

Here's a screenshot of that attachment from the app. I feel like this is how we'd expect it to display.

[shawnborton]

Yeah, that makes sense to me. So it seems like this is just an mWeb thing?

[dannymcclain]

Yeah that's what it looks like to me.

[sakluger]

@shawnborton @dannymcclain, just to confirm, are you saying that this is an mWeb bug, or that it's expected mWeb behavior?

[shawnborton]

Yup, seems like an mWeb bug.

[sakluger]

Thanks Shawn! I'll mark as external and add to #vip-vsb. I'm going to set the price at $250 since this is just an alignment issue on a single platform.
