Template:Wide image/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Wide image (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template allows you to easily include a panorama image. If the image is too wide, scrollbars will be added. If you do not want the image to use a thumbnail frame, you can use |border=no.

Usage

{{Wide image|name|image width|caption|box width|alignment|alt=alt text}}

A caption option is optional, and an image frame will be used if a caption is supplied. If the caption contains an equal sign, use the parameter |3=caption in the place of |caption. If the caption supplied is exactly equal to image syntax such as thumb, the image's tooltip will no longer display the caption, but instead default to the name of the image.

The box width option is optional, and if given a value in pixels followed by "px", or a value in percent followed by "%", will set the width of the box to that amount. For example, 45% would use 45% of the text section width, (not a percentage of the image width).

The alignment option is also optional but requires box width to be defined. If given a value of right or left, the entire wide image will float to the right or left. If given a value of none the image will not float.

The alt text describes the image's visual appearance to visually disabled readers. Please see WP:ALT for details.

To change the scroll direction from left-to-right to right-to-left, use |dir=rtl.

To align the caption, use |align-cap=.

To remove the outer border, use |border=no.
