-MarkText provides an image viewer and a pop up to select and label images. You can resize any image by your mouse cursor and changes are applied in realtime. By clicking on an image or writing `![]()` a pop up is automatically shown that allows you to select an image from disk or paste a path or URL. Images can be automatically uploaded to cloud, moved to a relative or absolute path on disk. Even pasting images that are not located on disk is supported and these images are stored in the background. In addition, you can control the image alignment whether inline, left, centered or right.
