Allow preview of online images in feature forms

[erpas]

Currently, in feature forms users can only preview images stored on the device. It would be great if they could also preview images stored online, for example in minio.

It works on desktop QGIS but not in the mobile app. Example project (public): https://app.merginmaps.com/projects/support/save_images_to_web

Hi, I am the one who originated this new enhancement request - is there a roadmap for this? It would be a REALLY useful feature for the mergin maps app!

You can now view online images using HTMLWidget. See: https://app.merginmaps.com/projects/lutraconsulting/image-html-view/
