Inserting an image from the clipboard

Copy an image to the clipboard:
- Copy a picture from an image editor or take a screenshot.
- Copy a picture from a web page.
- Copy an image file from the file manager on your computer.
Paste the image from the clipboard into the text.

The image is automatically uploaded to Tracker and added to the list of issue attachments.

Uploading an image

Visual editor

Markdown markup

On the toolbar, click Image.

You can also use the quick access menu: type / and select a command from the list.
Select how you want to embed the image:
- To add an image from a device, click Upload from device and select one or more files.
- To upload an image from a link, click Add by link:
  - In the Link field, paste the image URL.
  - Add a Picture caption. The caption will be displayed when you hover over the image.
  - Enter Alternative text. The text is displayed if the image fails to load.
  - Specify the image size in pixels. Since the image is scaled to maintain its aspect ratio, you can approximate the height.
Click Save.
To edit the image parameters, switch to edit mode, hover over the image, and click → Edit.

To embed an image in text, add code in the following format:

![<Alternative_text>](<Image_link> "<Caption>" =<Width>x<Height>)

Markup parameters:

<Alternative_text> shows when the image fails to load.
<Image_link>: URL of the image or relative address of the file from the list of attached files.
<Caption> shows when you hover over the image.
<Width> and <Height> in pixels. Since the image is scaled to maintain its aspect ratio, you can approximate the height.

Adding an image using a link

{% include notitle add-link %}

Embedding an image that's already uploaded to Tracker

If you embed an image from an issue with restricted access, users who don't have access to the source issue won't be able to see it.

Open the issue or comment the image is added to.
Click the image and select Copy link.
Use the obtained link to add the image to the text.

Adding download links for images

To enable users to download an image when clicked, use the following markup:

[<Link_text>](<Image_link>)

Example

[Yandex logo](https://img.yandex.net/i/logo95x37x8.png)

Result:

Yandex logo

Turning an image into a link

You can turn the image into a link so that clicking on it will open a page or file. To do this, insert an image in the link markup element instead of text:

[![<Alternative_text>](<Image_address>)](<Link_address>)
