 | This is the template sandbox page for Template:Image array (diff). See also the companion subpage for test cases. |
 | Before making a gallery, please read over the image use policy for galleries. Generally, a gallery should not be added so long as there is space for images to be effectively presented adjacent to text. |
 | This template uses Lua: |
This template is used to generate a rectangular image array, typically for use within an infobox. For image galleries, please use {{gallery}} or <gallery>...</gallery>. For most other uses, please consider using {{multiple image}} instead.

Embedding
[edit]To create a simple floating image array, use the template with {{Image frame}}.
{{Image frame
| content = {{image array|perrow = 4
| image1 = | caption1 =
| image2 = | caption2 =
| image3 = | caption3 =
| image4 = | caption4 =
| image5 = | caption5 =
| image6 = | caption6 =
| image7 = | caption7 =
| image8 = | caption8 =
| image9 = | caption9 =
| image10 = | caption10 =
| image11 = | caption11 =
| image12 = | caption12 =
| image13 = | caption13 =
| image14 = | caption14 =
| image15 = | caption15 =
| image16 = | caption16 =
}}
}}
Additional parameters
[edit]Default image size
[edit]The default image size is 60px by 70px. To override this default, use |width=YY and |height=ZZ, where YY and ZZ are raw numbers, without the px units.
Alternative text
[edit]To add alternative text for an image, use |altX=, where X is the image number.
Hint text
[edit]To add hint or tooltip text for an image, use |textX=, where X is the image number. To use the captions for the hint or tooltip text for all images, use |text=y.
Link text
[edit]By default, clicking on an image will direct the viewer to the file page, which contains licensing and attribution information for the image. This is required for any non-public domain images. To change the link to the image, use |linkX=, where X is the image number. However, be careful to make sure that you only do this for public domain images that do not require attribution.
Borders
[edit]To add a standard image border to an image, use |borderX=, where X is the image number. To add a border around all the image cells, use |border-width=X, where X is the width in pixels.
Classes
[edit]To add a class to the entire image array, use |class=. For example, |class=infobox or |class=toccolours.
