The Windows ConPTY layer might be interfering with this. If you use wezterm ssh
to connect directly to the remote host, I would expect this to work. Could you try that?
I'm not with this Windows 10 right now, will let you know tmr.

Yes, wezterm ssh
works.
We're waiting on some combination of: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/1173 https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/448
before this will work directly on ConPTY
For what it's worth, mintty is a Windows terminal that supports sixel graphics.
@ykhan21 wezterm does support sixel graphics. It's conpty in the middle that can mess things up
The workaround that I suggest is using wezterm ssh
to get directly into eg: a WSL environment or a remote linux environment
Is there a way to get it to work without ssh-ing into a linux / WSL environment?
For example, on Windows with mintty I can do:
magick convert image.png -polaroid 10 -thumbnail 500x image.png sixel:- > image.six.txt
,
then cat
the file to display the image with sixel graphics:
cat image.six.txt
.
No, conpty, which is intimately tied to native console program output on windows, does not support sixels. To use sixel, you need to avoid conpty. Learn more about conpty: https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/what-is-a-terminal.html#windows-and-conpty
As an alternative, using the iTerm2 image protocol uses a different kind of escape sequence that can mostly squeeze through conpty.
Consider using eg: png or jpg images together with wezterm imgcat
What Operating System(s) are you seeing this problem on?

Did you try the latest nightly build to see if the issue is better (or worse!) than your current version?
No, and I'll explain why below
