In the past few iterations, we have slowly moved away from the Copilot Vision Preview extension. This ports over the last available functionaility that was previously unavailable in Copilot - the alt text generation.

Test steps:

  1. in any markdown file, move your cursor to the line of markdown code with an image in it
  2. click on the lightbulb widget or ctrl + . to trigger quick fixes
  3. if the alt text field is empty, you can generate alt text. if it is filled, you can refine alt text
  4. This also works in HTML code chunks like below
