Image preview using Devonthink custom URL
Devonthink allows each item in it's database to have a custom URL. After reading this article (https://www.macstories.net/ios/ipad-diaries-devonthinks-new-advanced-automation/), I attempted to insert images into my markdown documents using Devonthink URL's instead of local file location so as to have a cross-platform solution. Example: . Unfortunately, Marked is not able to preview the images linked in this fashion. Am I doing something incorrectly? Thank you for your help, and for your awesome app.

A Markdown image tag like that won't even work within DEVONthink's
preview, as far as I know. It's not really a URL so much as a command,
and an external viewer can't do anything with it other than have
DevonThink open it. You could use it as a link, and clicking it would go
to the image in DEVONthink, but not actually source the file.

Thanks for your response.
Based on my own testing, it works in Devonthink (Mac and iOS) and shows the actual image. But I don't use Devonthink as my markdown creation tool, which is why I was wondering if there was a way to do it using a third party editor and Marked.
It also works on Editorial on iOS, but as a link (as you mentioned, opening the image within Devonthink instead of live preview).

Same here... I can see the images rendered within DevonThink but I use Marked for the preview which skips the images unfortunately. It would be very great if you can somehow implement this.
