வார்ப்புரு:Multiple image/doc

This template creates a box with two to ten images arranged vertically or horizontally with captions for the entire box or for each image.

With the appropriate choice of parameters, the template can automatically resize images to a given total width with each image having the same height.

Parameter	Description
align	right (default), left, center
direction	horizontal (default), vertical
background color	To set the background color of the box in which the images appear.
header_background
header_align	center (default), left, right
header
width	Use to set the same width for each image (i.e. overrides any width[n] below). Do not include if different image widths intended, including if images are to be resized to a fixed total width.
total_width	Use to scale the images to the same height and this total width. Do not use both total_width and width.
image[n]	(where [n] = 1 to 10)  Filename of [n]th image.
width[n]	(as above)  Two meanings: (1) The width (in pixels, integer, omit "px") of [n]th image. Overridden by width (if set). (2) The full width of the original [n]th image if total_width is given in order to resize all images to the same height and a given total width.
height[n]	(as above)  The full height of the original [n]th image if total_width is given in order to resize all images to the same height and a given total width. Ignored otherwise.
alt[n]	(as above)  Alt description for [n]th image.
link[n]	(as above)  To specify the page to which the [n]th image is linked (i.e. the page that is loaded when the image is clicked). If set as empty (e.g. ...|alt1=... |link1= |caption1=...), linking is disabled (even to the standard Wikipedia image description page); consider WP:ALT. Note: This parameter must not be used with images that have been given free licenses (such as the GDFL or a free CC license) as these licenses require images to be linked to a declaration of the license under which they are being used.
caption[n]	(as above)  Caption for the [n]th image.
caption_align	left (default), center, right
footer_background
footer_align	left (default), center, right
footer	Caption that spans the entire box, as opposed to individual images.

Examples

 | image1 = Yellow card.svg
 | alt1 = Yellow cartouche
 | image2 = Red card.svg
 | alt2 = Red cartouche
 | footer = Players are cautioned with a yellow card and sent off with a red card.

with links (link[n])

A mule

A donkey

A fish
(鱼 yú)

The image of the mule links to Mule; the image of the donkey does not link anywhere; the image of the trout links to a standard image description page.

 | caption2  = A donkey<br />(驴子 ''lǘzi'')</center>

 | image3 = Rainbow_trout.png
 | width3 = 91
 | alt3 = A trout
 | caption3  = A fish<br />({{lang|zh|2=鱼}} ''yú'')</center>

 | footer = The image of the mule links to [[Mule]]; the image of the donkey does not link anywhere; the image of the trout links to a [[Image description page|standard image description page]].
}}

using direction

By default, the images the template presents are displayed horizontally, as a row (see left; equivalent to setting |direction=horizontal). To display them vertically, i.e. as a column, set |direction=vertical (see right).

(horizontal)

(vertical)

to match image heights

Note: The following is unnecessary if all the images presented by the template have the same aspect ratio; if so, simply set width accordingly.

• Decide on a total width for all the images, say 320px
• Examine the individual image pages to obtain the full resolution. For example:
  • File:Donkey in Clovelly, North Devon, England.jpg shows "Donkey in Clovelly, North Devon, England.jpg (750 × 536 pixels, file size: 125 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)"
  • File:Rainbow trout.png shows "Rainbow_trout.png (300 × 300 pixels, file size: 158 KB, MIME type: image/png)"
• Specify the full width and height for each image, of the form:
  • |width1= |height1= |width2= |height2=
• Set the total width using |total_width=

Rectangular image of a donkey, originally 536 pixels high.

Square image of a trout, originally 300 pixels high.

Both images have been rendered with the same height, and a total width of 320px

{{multiple image|caption_align=center|header_align=center
 | align = right
 | total_width = 320

 | image1 = Donkey in Clovelly, North Devon, England.jpg
 | width1 = 750 | height1 = 536
 | alt1 = A donkey
 | caption1 = Rectangular image of a donkey, originally 536 pixels high.

 | image2 = Rainbow_trout.png
 | width2 = 300 | height2 = 300
 | alt2 = A trout
 | caption2 = Square image of a trout, originally 300 pixels high.

 | footer = Both images have been rendered with the same height, and a total width of 320px
}}

Multiple rows

To create an array of images, with multiple rows, use |perrow=. The value passed to |perrow= may be a single number, or a list of numbers delimited by /. This feature may also be combined with |total_width= for multiple rows of images with the same total width.

TemplateData

This is the TemplateData documentation for this template used by VisualEditor and other tools.

Multiple image

This template creates a box with two to ten images arranged vertically or horizontally with captions for the entire box and/or for each images.

Template parameters

This template prefers block formatting of parameters.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Alignment	align	Sets text-wrapping around image box, where "none" places the box on the left edge with no text-wrapping, "center" places the box at center with no text-wrapping and "left" and "right" refer to position of box on screen with text-wrapping. Default right Example left/right/center/none	String	suggested
Direction	direction	Direction in which to tile the images. Default horizontal Example horizontal/vertical	String	suggested
Width	width	Width overrides Width 1, Width 2, Width 3, etc. If you want the images to be different sizes, do not provide the width parameter. Integer width in pixels; no "px" suffix Example 200	String	suggested
Background color	background color	Defines the background color between the border of the box and the images.	String	optional
Header	header	no description	String	optional
Footer	footer	no description	String	optional
Caption alignment	caption_align	no description Default left Example left/right/center	String	optional
Header alignment	header_align	no description Default center Example left/right/center	String	optional
Footer alignment	footer_align	no description Default left Example left/right/center	String	optional
Header background	header_background	no description	String	optional
Footer background	footer_background	no description	String	optional
Image 1	image1	Image 1 is name of first image. Similarly for Image 2, etc. File name only; no "File:" or "Image:" prefix. Example example.jpg	String	suggested
Width 1	width1	width 1 is width of first image. Similarly for Width 2, etc.	Number	optional
Alt text 1	alt1	The [[alt text]] of first image (see [[WP:ALT]]). Similarly for Alt text 2, etc.	String	optional
Caption 1	caption1	Caption 1 is caption of first image. Similarly for Caption 2, etc.	String	suggested
Link 1	link1	Where the first page links to. Similarly for Link 2, etc. If not specified, image links to the image description page as usual. If specified to the empty value, the image does not link anywhere; this should be used for purely decorative images as per [[WP:ALT]]. Important: If the image is under a free license like the GFDL or a CC license, you must not use this parameter as the terms of those licenses require the license, or a link to it, to be reproduced with the image. The image must, therefore, link to its image page. Public domain and (theoretically) fair use images are not subject to this restriction.	String	optional
Image 2	image2	no description Example example.jpg	String	suggested
Width 2	width2	no description	String	optional
Alt text 2	alt2	no description	String	optional
Caption 2	caption2	no description	String	suggested
Link 2	link2	no description	String	optional
Image 3	image3	no description Example example.jpg	String	optional
Width 3	width3	no description	String	optional
Alt text 3	alt3	no description	String	optional
Caption 3	caption3	no description	String	optional
Link 3	link3	no description	String	optional
