I paste a lot of images into Fibery, and it generally doesn’t behave the way I want. I was surprised that I didn’t find a topic here for it already.
First, images are always centered, which is almost never what I want. I almost always want them left-aligned.
Then, images are usually too big. I’m on a Mac, and a take and paste a lot of screenshots, and they always seem big. (Like they aren’t being scaled correctly for retina resolution.)
But then I imported an iOS screenshot (transferred via AirDrop) into a comment field, and it was huge. And there doesn’t seem to be any way to shrink it on screen. It makes it really hard to read through the discussion on a card, with giant images breaking up the actual conversation.

You should be able to adjust image sizes (in rich text and in comments)

Oh! Thank you so much! I had seen those little “handles” but I never guessed what they were for. I was looking for something on that flyover toolbar, or for something to appear in the corners. I never thought to even touch those handles… it’s much better now!

And I should have said, you can choose the alignment for any image, using the toolbar

Yeah, that part I know about. It just seems like the default (of centered) is “wrong”. Do people usually want their images floating off to the right of their text?
