Description

  • Add an image in markdown syntax to a jsdoc comment
  • In a local vscode window, hover the identifier with the command
  • The image is rendered
  • Do the same in a remote window
  • The image is broken

Same issue with notebooks. @mjbvz Is it possible to hook into the same system that webviews use, or is that only tied to webviews?
