Copy link

When using the Insert-->Image-->Copy all images in a local folder function it copies all the pictures into ./$FILENAME_files/$PICTURE

However it does so relative, meaning that if one exports the html via Export as HTML to a location other than the storage directory of the markdown file the images aren't found and therefore appear as a broken link.

I see 2 options that should fix the issue:

  • Set the path to an absolute one
  • copy the files over to the new location.

A third option would be to encode images as base 64.

Set the path to an absolute one

Yes, but it's not really "portable".

I think the best solution is to copy relative images to some target.html_files/images directory. Actually, this is what was mainly planned (until I forgot about it 😅).

Binary blobs seem just a bit hacky to me 😉

Thank you very much for taking care of it, awesome program by the way.
