Steps to reproduce
Using the name of an image in the vault, enter
![](image.png)
<img src="image.png">
Expected result
Both the markdown and the HTML should render the same image
Actual result
The markdown can find the image, but the HTML cannot - it just shows the little ‘missing image’ icon
Environment
- Operating system: Windows 10
- Obsidian version: v0.8.12

Not a bug. We don’t support this.
Can we move this over to feature requests then? Most other html seems to work as expected, so this seems like a strange omission
It’s not a strange omission. It’s an electron security policy. I think there is already a feature request to access based on file://
.
We have also proposed some work on electron to ease the overall issue of accessing a local file without compromising security.

Ok, but how can one set image’s size in your program without using <img>
?
[upd] Oh, I found in your docs, thanks:

Thank you for the clarification.
I found this because I attempted to use an “img” tag so I could add a border to an image (screenshot without a border blends into the background and is thus hard to see);
Is there any alternative way to do that?
(ideas: add a custom css class somehow??)
Thanks for sharing the way to add sizes to images.
