Resize and align image in Markdown #19660

Closed AlonaNadler closed 6 years ago

AlonaNadler commented 6 years ago

Describe the feature: currently Kibana supports the syntax to add an image to a markdown, but there is no way to resize the image using the GH markdown syntax or to align the image (center, left or right)

Markdown is a great way to customized a dashboard and help navigate to other dashboards, adding an image helps to share a message or brand it, missing the ability to align or to resize image is limiting

Could you please clarify a bit more in detail, what syntax you would expect to work (markdown examples) and provide a link to the appropriate GFM (Github Flavored Markdown) docs, that show that syntax?

I created a markdown visualization with an image, I wanted to align the image to the middle, couldn't find a way to do it using markdown, or to control the image size example: image The right side panel is aligned to the left, and a bit smaller than the other panel next to it. not urgent, but it makes it harder to create a unified look and control the layout.

Markdown doesn't support aligning images. Also none of the flavors we support does so. So there is no way of aligning images in markdown (or any addition we could activate) to support it.

In case we want to make panels, that can hold more advanced styling, we would need to think about not using markdown for that, but rather switch to some more advanced language (like HTML directly) to allow such styling. If you feel we should consider thinking about replacing Markdown by something more complex, please feel free to create an enhancement request for that.
