Image Asset meta information for existing images

When adding an image to an image field in the Perch admin, you can see some rather useful information about the selected image when you have made your selection.

Looks like this:

But when you go to edit a region after saving it all that information isn't displayed? Is there a way of configuring perch/editing a file to always show this information? Currently when you go to edit the region you see the image but no asset meta information:

Thanks in advance for any help and apologies if this has been asked before I couldn't find any other forum posts on this subject - I'm also relatively new to perch!

That shouldn't be the case, no. Are these in blocks or repeaters? In content regions or in an app?

So I have a content region which is using a template.. which contains a <perch:repeater id='images'> tag.

I then have an image tag inside with and img tag like the following <img src="<perch:content id="image" label="Image" type="image" />" ... />

In a repeater - great. We'll take a look into it. The fix may be to wait for Perch 3.
