Hi StarUML,

I want to use picture in the Markdown documentation.
If I use an absolute path everything works great in StarUML and with the export.
But an absolute path like "![PictureAbsolute](/D:/example.jpg)" is poor, because
then the file structure must be always the same...

So I tried the relative path like "![PictureRelative](///pics/example.jpg)".
In StarUML Preview it works well but in the export the picture can´t be displayed.
I the failure is in the conversion to HTML
"<img alt="PictureRelative" src="///pics/example.jpg"/>" 
If i change it to:
<p><img alt="PictureRelative" src="pics/example.jpg"/>
it works

Also I have to copy the picture manually but that is ok

Hi,

Markdown support is not intended to use local images, so we recommend embed images in the online.

Eventhough, Is this ("///pics/example.jpg") is a relative path? Did you tried relative paths starts with "./" or "../"?

Thanks,

Hi,

 

what do you mean with not to use local images?
How could I embed online images in StarUML?

 

The relative path ![PictureRelative](///example.jpg) is working in StarrUML but not in the export.

I tried ![PictureRelative](./example.jpg) and ![PictureRelative](../example.jpg) but both are not working in StarUML.

 

See here in StarUML only absolute and  /// is working

 

That is the exported HTML, only absolute and the ./ is working
Here I have to copy the picture into the directory \html-docs\contents before


 

The HTML Code

 

 

So I think the conversion from markdown /// to HTML shoud be ./ what Do you think?

 

 

Best regards

Additionally, I could show images with relative path with "./" and "../" in macOS. But Windows has different way to represent local path.

Hello Minkyu,

thanx for your answer. In my office I have to use MS Windows 10 ☹

I´ve tried some stuff from StackoverFlow but it doesn´t work.

 

I tried it also with the editor Atom

Here just works it with ../ but here also works the export to HTML (see screenshot)

Any idea? or do relative path just don´t work in StarUML in Windows?Screenshot_Atom_Windows.png
