Image Capabilities:
Along with Markdown, we’ve added support for images and GIFs within comments and notebook descriptions. Images are stored internally in their original format, including their original size. They are automatically scaled according to the width of the notebook in which they are visible and cannot be manually scaled. The supported formats are .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .bmp, .gif, and .svg. To insert an image, use one of the following methods:- Right-click and select Insert Image
- Paste a copied image
- Drag and drop a local file
