开发者_开发问答My question is similar to Adding images into source code, but my environment is Visual C++. Is there some way how to add images as a part of comments and make the IDE to display them (either inline, or by clicking on them or performing some action on them)?

What I was doing until now was either to provide an URL to an external .PNG or .SVG file placed in the SVN using its URL, or by creating an ASCII art, but it somehow feels strange to me in the age of GUIs and rich documents everywhere be still limited to this. If there is no better solution, are there at least some pluings to make this more streamlined (e.g. by creating the SVN document for me and placing a link to it in the comment, or by helping me in the ASCII art drawing)?

There is a sample add in that appears to be doing this. I haven't run it.

Here's the link. Source code is available.
