Attachments and images

Glyph stores pasted images and other files in your space. You control where they land, and how they appear in notes and the file tree.

Paste an image

Open a note in Rich mode.
Copy an image to the clipboard.
Paste into the note (⌘/Ctrl+V).

Glyph saves the image using your attachment location setting and inserts a Markdown image link that points at the saved file.

Attachment location

Open Space settings and find Attachments → Location (labeled Attachment location).

Choose one of these modes:

Option	Where files go
At the top of your space	Space root
One folder for all attachments	One shared folder (default name `assets`)
Next to each note	Same folder as the note
In a subfolder with the note	A subfolder next to the note (default name `assets`)

When a mode asks for a folder name, Glyph uses assets unless you set another path.

Change the location before you paste if you care where new files land. Files you already saved stay where they are until you move them yourself.

Image syntax in notes

Standard Markdown images

![Alt text](assets/photo.png)

Use a path relative to the space (or as Glyph inserted it when you pasted).

Wiki embeds

![[assets/photo.png]]

Wiki embeds pull the file into the note. You can add an alias for alt-style text when the editor supports it on that embed. See wiki links and extract for [[ linking and ![[...]] embeds.

Both forms work in Rich and Preview. In Raw mode you see and edit the Markdown source.

Show non-Markdown files

Attachments are normal files in the space. To see them in the sidebar:

Open Settings → General.
Under File tree, turn on Show non-Markdown files.

With this on, PDFs, images, and other attachments show in the file tree and Folio list. With it off, Glyph hides those files from those views only. The files remain on disk, and links in notes still work.

Link to files in the space

Point Markdown links or wiki links at any file in the space:

[Design PDF](docs/spec.pdf)
[[docs/spec.pdf]]

For images you want displayed inline, prefer ![](...) or ![[...]]. For download-style references, use a normal link without !.

Type [[ to open wiki-link autocomplete and pick a note or file from the space.

Practical tips

Keep One folder for all attachments if you want a single assets (or custom) folder to browse and back up.
Use Next to each note when each note should carry its own images beside it.
Use In a subfolder with the note when you want per-note folders without cluttering the note’s parent directory.
Turn on Show non-Markdown files when you need to drag, rename, or open attachments from the tree.
