how to launch and view a image/picture's on notpad++
-
Unless someone codes an image viewer plugin,
you can’t display images in Npp. -
@Ekopalypse
I did come across this artical
https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/17648/insert-image-in-notepad
It would be kinda annoying but ill have to make it work. -
Sorry but ???
What do you try to do? Create a html site with images or want to
embed images like in MSWord? -
@Ekopalypse
I’m kinda a noob. I don’t know about either of your questions. I just want to see picture’s on notpad++. I try’d the method above but I don’t get the option to brows for a image to have it post on notepade++ like <img …I have the preview HTML plugin working. I dont know if I got ImgTag plugin working.
-
from your response I get that you try to program in html.
If so, yes there is the outdated previewhtml plugin,
which uses, afaik, some ancient IE browser object.
If I were you I wouldn’t use it instead I would view the
code with an installed browser.
This ensures that you can always be up to date with
the latest browser technologies. -
@Ekopalypse
At the moment I just want to sample the img in notepad++. One of the post in link I gave has a sample of the plugins putting image in notepad++.
I just realized the ImgTag plug in is only for 32 bit notepad++.
I guess I’l have to switch to 32 bit. -
Even if you’re a newbie, I think you can describe exactly what
you want to do and the statement or question how to embed an image
in Notepad++ is unfortunately not meaningful.
Where is the problem to describe exactly what you want?
What are you doing right now?
Creating a website?
Develop a C-program?
Bake a cake and create a recipe for it? -

Maybe you did not understand @Ekopalypse’s request for additional information. Saying,
I’m just trying to launch pictures nothing ells.
is the equivalent to going to your doctor and saying “it hurts”. When the doctor asks “what hurts?”, you reply “it hurts”.
Notepad++ is a text editor. We thus assume you are thus using it to edit some sort of text. What sort of text?
- Are you editing the HTML code for a webpage, and want to preview a picture from an
<a href="https://example.url/to/pic.gif">? - Are you editing a Markdown file, and you want to preview a picture from an
? - Are you editing a plain text document, where you happen to have the text
https://example.url/to/pic.gifsomeplace? - Are you editing the text of an SVG image, and want that image to render?
- Are you editing a c program that creates a gif and writes it to disk, and you’re thus expecting Notepad++ to compile and run the program, and then launch a viewer so you can see the results?
- Or did you open
pic.pngin Notepad++, and you are wondering why it shows%PNG [SUB][NUL][NUL][NUL]or a jpeg and why it’s showingÿØÿà [NUL][DLE]JFIFand how to get it to render the image?
The answer to each of those is different. We need context to be able to understand what you really want. Until you can give us more (and “I’m just trying to launch pictures” is not giving us more), we cannot help you.

Sorry if I was not clear. I’m fairly illiterate. I want to use notepad++ for my notes/diary and would like to sample/view images and text on same page/tab in it as I don’t like having to open some images that I need up all the time. It would save me many clicks if I can see images in notepad++. -
Notepad++ is a text editor. Images are not text. I am not sure how else to say it.
