Describe the bug Markdown view does not show images attached unless you select the option to take a photo from the app.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open a note.
  2. Hit "Insert Image"
  3. Select the gallery icon and pick an image.
  4. Enable "Markdown view".
  5. No images will be shown.

Android 10, neutriNote CE v.3.8.4 F-Droid

Hmmm... What if you tried turning on "Add Images" under Settings?

Thanks, it worked.

Though, I can't help but mention how difficult it is to understand what that feature does. Would you consider rephrasing it in the app? I still have no idea what "Always add inserted images to local repository." implies. What is local repo? What does it mean to add images that are already on my device to it?

Local repo is basically the folder managed by neutriNote directly, by appointing a single source for note files is making sync across multiple devices easier, especially for 3rd party sync apps. neutriNote was originally designed as a note app, file editing function was added later on.

Then I suppose when you take a photo by choosing the camera option from the app, the image is saved in the local repository, whereas it is just a link when you attach an image from the gallery. I get this part, but I don't understand why this is an option. If I can't see my attached images when the option is turned off, why would I even keep it turned off?

There are users who prefer to manage their photos for various reasons (limited internal storage, prefer keeping their data local, etc).

Then, how do they see the attached images? If they can't see the images, then there's no point in attaching them.

Before Scope Storage put in place in the more recent Android (since version 9?), there was no such restriction being imposed on file access.
