Displaying images inline

Displaying images inline

[Lindsay Todd]

Is there a way to link to a file containing an image, and have the
image display inline in org-mode?  I know that if the org file is
exported to HTML, it can be done so that the HTML file displays the
image inline -- but I'd kind of like to be able to see the linked
images from the org file itself, much like I can do with a muse file.
(Although if there were a file-wide property to control whether or not
that happens, it would be nice -- I could see maybe wanting to never
inline in some files.)

Thanks.

You can do this using iimage; add the following to your .emacs:

;;iimage
(require 'iimage)
(setq iimage-mode-image-search-path (expand-file-name "~/"))
;;Match org file: links
(add-to-list 'iimage-mode-image-regex-alist
	     (cons (concat "\\[\\[file:\\(~?" iimage-mode-image-filename-regex
			   "\\)\\]")  1))
(define-key org-mode-map [(control c) ?i] 'iimage-mode)

You can then toggle inline display of images in an org buffer using C-c i.

Awesome!  Many thanks.

I used to toggle so much between an image (charts/graphs) and Emacs
while writing about it but now.. wow!

Thanks again.

Every time I've tried to follow the instructions for getting inline
images to work, I've had no luck. The iimage mode is shown, but links
just stay as links.

I think that my setup is capable of displaying graphics because I can
see the GNU Emacs logo at Emacs startup.

In principle, should iimage-mode work with Org-mode 6.06b, GNU Emacs
22.1.1 on Windows XP Pro SP3? If so, I'll take a closer look for where I
may be going wrong.

I think you need some libraries in emacs\bin directory.  I have
libpng3.dll, libpng12.dll, libungif4.dll, libXpm.dll, xpm4.dll,
zlib1.dll there.  You should be able to download them from
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages.html You may want to download
for jpeg as well (though it hasn't worked for me yet.)

I've got the same problem running emacs 22.1.1 on Ubuntu 8.04, Org 6.06b.
Images remain links when I toggle. Any thoughts?

Thank you!  I get the "underline" running right through the image, but
that is tolerable.  This helps me.

That comes from the org link. It can be removed by customizing the
link face used by org-mode.

This will get rid of the underline whilst using iimage:. 

(defun ahkt-toggle-iimage-in-org ()
  (interactive)
  (if (face-underline-p 'org-link)
      (set-face-underline-p 'org-link nil)
      (set-face-underline-p 'org-link t))
  (iimage-mode))

(define-key org-mode-map [(control c) ?i] 'ahkt-toggle-iimage-in-org)

displaying images inline

[Bernd Wolter]

Hi,

as I wrote in another post I'm running 

GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i686-pc-cygwin, X toolkit) of 2003-01-23 on DRACO

in a rootless X-Window under Winnt 4 SP 6.

I use this strange setup to be able to display images inline. I have
files that contain strings that point to either tif or gif files in
the same directory or a subdirectory - similar to html files but not
quite.

I do have a special browser and an editor for this kind of file but
both are really very limited and I'd love to use emacs for them.

Now I can insert the images with "M-x insert-image-file" and they are
displayed in all their glory. As soon as I save the file cum image and
kill it the images are replaced by their text representation. How can
I upon re-entry of the file have them displayed as images again? I
tried to add

-*- mode: auto-image-file-mode;-*-

at the top of the file but this doesn't seem to take effect
(auto-image-file-mode is not active), also setting it "by hand" before
visiting the file does not help. The documentation on images is still
a bit sparse to say the least and what I found in the NEWS file on the
display text property left me as clue-less as before.

Is it possible at all? If so how?

Bernd
