Description

Only know for external image

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Have a image format not listed on under type, in my example i have a tiff image
  2. Add _canonical_uri to fields (which isn't listed)
  3. Set type to image/tiff
  4. Check uri is correct by clicking
  5. Save

Expected Results:

See the image

Actual Results:

Trying to load external content from path/to/image.tif

If this message doesn't disappear, either the tiddler content type doesn't match the type of the external content, or you may be using a browser that doesn't support external content for wikis loaded as standalone files. See https://tiddlywiki.com/#ExternalText

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in TiddlyDesktop with an external TIFF image, following the listed steps and tracing the external-content handling. Done means an external image with type image/tiff and a _canonical_uri displays after the tiddler is saved instead of showing the loading warning.
