Before: a picture the client could draw was shown under a line that still read [image: name], so the reader saw the picture's name and the picture. A picture drawn in cells the server left for it had no link at all.

After: once a picture is drawn, its label comes off the line. A line that was only the picture is replaced by it. Clicking the picture does what clicking the label did: it opens the picture, or sends the <SEND> the picture was inside. On a terminal that can't draw pictures, or when a picture fails to load, the label stays.

How: InlineImageHost.Load now reports which request each picture belongs to. PlaceInlinePicture rebuilds the anchor line without that picture's label, or replaces the line when nothing else was on it, then inserts the rows. Linked wraps each picture row in its label's [link=…], which takes no cells. PaneLine.Plain keeps the label, so ⌃F still finds a picture by name.

Tests: MxpImageTests covers the label going, a picture on a line of its own, a picture inside a <SEND>, and links on reserved pictures. Tui, Graphics, Scripting and Web suites pass. In Core, AReadOnlyCacheDirectory_DegradesToMemoryOnly fails here because the container runs as root, which can write to a read-only directory; this change doesn't touch Core.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Inline images now appear at their corresponding text lines and replace their labels once successfully loaded. Images retain the label’s link, including command links.
    • Images that arrive late still appear at the correct line. If loading fails, the text label remains visible.
    • When a line also contains reserved picture cells, its labels remain and the inline image appears beneath them.
  • Documentation
    • Updated image guidance to describe placement, link behavior, and what happens when image loading fails.

A drawn inline picture now takes its [image: name] label's place: the label
comes off its line when the picture arrives, and a line that was only the
picture is replaced by it. Picture rows carry the label's link, reserved
pictures included, so clicking the picture opens it or sends its <SEND>.
A picture that fails keeps its label.

Walkthrough

Inline MXP image loading now reports each successful result’s request index. The TUI uses that index to place image rows at the source line, retain the label’s link action, and replace the label when the image loads.

Changes

Inline MXP image placement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Indexed image requests
src/SharpMUTerm.Tui/InlineImageHost.cs, src/SharpMUTerm.Tui/SharpMUTermApp.cs
InlineImageHost.Load delivers successful rows with their original request indexes. The TUI tracks source span indexes and interactions for image placement.
Image placement and pane updates
src/SharpMUTerm.Tui/SharpMUTermApp.cs, tests/SharpMUTerm.Tui.Tests/MxpImageTests.cs, CLAUDE.md
Loaded image rows inherit the label’s link action. The TUI replaces an arrived label unless the line contains reserved picture cells. Tests and guidance cover image-only lines, linked images, and late-arriving images. Pane updates can request a repaint, including for empty row results.

A line containing only several pictures may show a stray blank line above them. The pictures still render, so this is safe to merge with a small follow-up fix.

When the last label of a line holding only pictures goes, the first
picture row under the line moves up into it, so the pictures keep their
order with nothing blank above them.
