Image Formatting Tutorial

This tutorial will show you how to add captions to your images, as well as format them on the page within a field of text.

The Page View section will show what the figures and image captions look like on a page.

The Cascade View section will give a short tutorial on applying image captions and formats.

For guidance on resizing and optimizing images before uploading them to Cascade, refer to the Image Optimization page.

Instructions


Page View


 Cascade View

  1. Select the image and open its settings. Go to the Advanced tab and add a caption. 
  2. The caption will appear under the image. Edit it like normal text. To align the caption text, select it and choose left, center, right, or justify alignment.


NOTE: Make sure the caption has spaces. A long, continuous string, such as a URL, may overflow into nearby text or space.

Page View


Cascade View


  1. In the Text/Image context option, add your text and image as normal.
  2. To position the image in Cascade View, select the image’s figure element. Make sure the bottom of the editor shows only figure.
  3. Open Formats and choose an image layout. The left and right formats place the image beside the text. Choose the 200px or 300px size as needed.
    For a centered image in Page View, like the first example, do not apply a format.

 

NOTE: To change formats, select the new format first, then deselect the old one. Multiple formats can be applied, but the image will prioritize only one.
