This is a documentation subpage for Template:Scalable image. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template uses TemplateStyles: Template:Scalable image/styles.css

This template allows you to include a big image. If the image is too wide, the size of thumbnail frame will be smaller.

Usage

((Scalable image|name|image width|caption|box width|alignment|alt=alt text))

• An image width value is required; specify a number of pixels, followed by "px". This specifies the full width at which the image will be displayed, and is distinct from box width (the width of the box on the page).
• 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 hide the tooltip, use |tooltip=no.

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

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