Description

Example

Works in a .md file

Image showing the image preview working from inside a test.md document

Inside a .qmd file this is not working

Image showing the image preview is not working from inside a test.qmd document, as a broken image small logo is shown instead of the image itself

I assume this is something at Quarto extension level as this is happening for .qmd only.

For context,

this is on Windows with Quarto Extension 1.122.0

Research direction

Reproduce the difference between the mentioned test.md and test.qmd files on Windows with Quarto Extension 1.122.0, using the linked Markdown image examples. Trace how image previews are handled for .qmd files, then confirm that the same image renders in the .qmd case as it does in .md.
