Pictures not well-arranged automaticlly

[sharonyue]

Hello guys,

I found nodebb can not arrange the pictures decently automatically. Let's just try to insert a pic: then we type something. then we insert another pics: Then we type something.

Lets see the results.

see?

Pictures and text are not well-arranged.

A simple fix approach is to automaticlly insert the pictures in a new line, and add a blank line after it

Are you suggesting we add code to add flanking lines around images? I don't see the purpose of doing so since we have a live preview and people can just add the lines themselves if they don't like how it looks.

[sharonyue]

Yes.

The live preview shows it good since the live preview is narrow (only left half of the window). When I post this thread, it is well-arranged in preview. However, it is not well-arranged after I posted it.

This is what we run into with my forum. Many users would like to post pictures. Then I have to edit their posts in every thread.

This is from preview:

well-arranged.

However, please see my post before. It changed.

We should follow the approach of other editors and see what they do.

I believe when you drag and drop an image into a Gmail composer, it will insert it inline. That matches our behaviour...

Well, its just a mild suggestion.
Most of the cases, users do not upload pictures.
However, for a certain forum (e.g., my forum), they post lots of pictures. And it should be more user-friendly to arrange pictures automatically with flanking lines. Or, maybe nodebb could add a switch in the system management panel, then let the administrator to choose automatically arrange pics or not.
