Image renders as a placeholder until user clicks on it about cocoamarkdown HOT 3 CLOSED

I should have mentioned: MacOS 10.14

I found a workaround... we were using an NSTextField, which causes the above issue. Switching it to an NSTextView makes it render correctly, as in the example app. Not sure why this would matter but I'm past my problem now at least.

Actually NSTextField should not be used for markdown-related attributed string display because a text field is a NSControl intended for text entry, so it has a number of limitations compared to NSTextView.

According to Apple Developer Documentation:

The Field Editor

The field editor is a single NSTextView object that is shared among all the controls, including text fields, in a window. This text view object inserts itself into the view hierarchy to provide text entry and editing services for the currently active text field. When the user shifts focus to a text field, the field editor begins handling keystroke events and display for that field. Figure 4-3 illustrates the field editor in relation to the text field it is editing.

@tsfischer Can you therefore close this issue?
