Help:Image gallery

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

In addition to adding individual images to and article, you can also create image galleries. This is an easy way of displaying a large number of images.

[edit] Syntax

The basic syntax of an image gallery is:

<gallery>
Image:Wiki.png
Image:Wiki.png|Captioned
Image:Wiki.png
Image:Wiki.png|[[Memory Alpha:About|Links]] can be put in captions.
Image:Wiki.png
Image:Wiki.png|Full [[Help:Wiki markup|MediaWiki markup]]<br/>syntax may be used…
</gallery>

Which produces:

	Captioned		Links can be put in captions.
	Full MediaWiki markup syntax may now be used…

Notice that there are no brackets except for links within captions. Captions are optional. Images are separated by new lines.

It is also possible to alter the thumbnails' maximum height and width, define how many images should be displayed per row, and specify a header caption for the entire gallery:

• heights adjusts the maximum height and widths adjusts the maximum width of all thumbnails within a gallery
• perrow adjusts the number of images per row
• caption gives the gallery a caption

This example...

<gallery heights="200" widths="200" perrow="2" caption="performing gallery features">
Image:Wiki.png|Caption
Image:Wiki.png|Caption
Image:Wiki.png|Caption
Image:Wiki.png|Caption
</gallery>

...is rendered as...

performing gallery features
