Fails to understand image link in document

Things I have tried

file structure in the vault:
/.attachments/picture1.png
/subdir/mydocument.md

The link below is defined in mydocument.md, but it does not show up.

![Picture](/.attachments/Picture1.png)

What Iā€™m trying to do

I have imported a wiki from azure devops, but the images does not show up.

The problem is that if I specify a format that obsidian understands, the original wiki does not understand the image :confused:

Have I missed something?

Thanks in advance!

From my testing, it looks like the issue lies in the use of a hidden directory path. If I use a hidden directory, I get an message stating that

image

If I use a regular folder then the image loads as expected.

Iā€™m not sure if this is a bug or feature, but I will state that you get the same behavior if you try to link this way to a markdown file in a hidden folder as well.

Instead of using /.attachemnts/Picture1.png, you could use a URI similar to file:///Users/username/some/.hidden/path/to/Picture1.png which appears to work.
