Picture Module Settings Window

This window displays the current settings for the selected Picture Module.

The elements of this window are as follows:

Placement
Each page on your site has designated ‘containers’ into which you can place Modules. The container names are displayed on the page to help you identify them. Select the container name from this list where you wish to display the Picture Module.

Style
There is normally only one setting for this which is ‘default’. In some cases though you may have other options available. This can be used to select an alternate style for the Module if one exists.

Picture Alignment
You can align the picture either to the left or right edge of the container, or centrally.

Picture Scaling
You can use this menu to scale a picture. The scaling settings are a percentage of the enclosing container width. For better quality scaling though it is recommended that you resize an image in photo-editing software, see our help page on preparing pictures for your website.

Picture Alternate Text
It is highly recommended that you add an alternate text description for each picure on your website. This alternate text helps those people who are using accessibility aids, such as text readers, to understand the meaning of your pictures.

As an example, if your picture is of the Houses of Parliament, then enter ‘Houses of Parliament’ here.

Picture Caption
If you would like your picture to have a caption added beneath it enter the caption text here.

Picture Caption Alignment
Alignment settings for the caption underneath your picture. You can allign it to the left, centre or right edge of the picture.
