Basics
From: Mediawiki: Images Guideline
- Resizing option:
- {width}px — Resizes the image to fit within the given maximum width in pixels, without restricting its height;
- x{height}px — Resizes the image to fit within the given maximum height in pixels, without restricting its width;
- {width}x{height}px — Resizes the image to fit within the given width and height in pixels;
- upright — Resizes an image to fit within reasonable dimensions, according to user preferences (suitable for images whose height is larger than width).
- Note that the image will always retain its aspect ratio, and can only be reduced (not increased) in size unless it's in a scalable media type (bitmap images cannot be scaled up). The default maximum size depends on the format and the internal image dimensions (according to its media type).
- Alignment options:
- Horizontal alignment option:
left, right, center, none;
Controls the horizontal alignment (and inline/block or floating styles) of the image within a text (no default value).
- Vertical alignment option:
baseline, sub, super, top, text-top, middle, bottom, text-bottom;
Controls the vertical alignment of a non-floating inline image with the text before or after the image, and in the same block (the default vertical alignment is middle).
