Image custom fields - why is CKEditor not supported

[rsi]

I'm trying to setup an extended description field for images for a client.
It's a portfolio page that has many images with a short description attached to them.
I would prefer if i could avoid having to generate a page per image and have a CKEditor as a custom field - it seems that is not possible and I'm guessing it's because of performance!?

Maybe I'm missing something here and it is possible.
Thanks for clarifications!

Hi @rsi You can setup custom fields for images, take a look at this blog post https://processwire.com/blog/posts/pw-3.0.142/#custom-fields-for-files-images

Thanks for your reply!
I wasn't sure if the situation had changed concerning the CKEditor in custom fields!

I'm using Markdown know and might upgrade later!

@ryanIs there a way to use the content of a image custom field in the CKEditor?

I need to do a mouseover with some informations (caption, year, copyright) over the image.
