MarkdownInlineImages

MarkdownInlineImages is a plugin that renders your images below their link. Why? Because markdown is just great, except for images. Reading a markdown file is really easy, almost as easy as a it can be once it's converted to HTML for example, if you have a good color scheme. Except for images. This plugin just completes this gap 😄

So, to use it, just press alt+i, or, from the command palette, select MarkdownInlineImages: Render Images. All the images will rendered.

The actual behaviour

When you press alt+i, the image are rendered, except if you haven't made any change to the buffer, it'll hide all of them. So, if you want to hide the images, just press twice alt+i.

Which type of image for it work with?

You can use images loaded from internet, or relative to your file. The support formats are:

• PNG
• BMP
• JPG
• GIF

Note: Every images rendered is cached in a single file. Even the local ones (because they are converted to base64)

Can I use references?

Yes, you can!

Hum... The link goes usualy below the image, no?

This is a personal preference... But, I added a settings so that it fits your need (stop looking behind you, I'm talking to you 😜)

Open up your settings:

• from the command palette (ctrl+shift+p) and search for Preferences: MarkdownInlineImages Settings
• from the menus: Preferences → Package Settings → MarkdownInlineImages

And set the setting display_image_above_markup to true. Here's what you'll get:

Pro tip: images are clickable.
