Resizing an image
There are three ways to resize an image after inserting it in the content of a template.
l
Click the image and drag the handles to resize it. Press the Shift key while dragging, to
scale the image proportionally.
l Select the image (see "Selecting an element" on page 227) and type the desired width
and height in the respective fields on the Attributes pane.
l
Select the image and select Format > Image, on the menu. On the Image tab, change the
width and height of the image.
Positioning an image
Initially an image will float to the left. Select the image (see "Selecting an element" on page
227) and use the (Float left), (No float) and (Float right) icons on the toolbar to change
the position of an image within the text.
l
The Float left button aligns the image to the left. The text is positioned to the right of it and
is wrapped around the box.
l
The Float right button aligns the image to the right, with the text wrapped around it to the
left.
l
The No float button positions the image where it occurs in the text.
To position an image using the menu, select the image and then select one of the options in
Format > Float.
Alternatively, select the image and on the menu, select Format > Image and on the Image tab,
set the Float property. This is equivalent to the float property in CSS.
Rotating an image
To rotate an image, select the image (see "Selecting an element" on page 227) and select
Format > Image, on the menu. On the Image tab, set the rotation angle of the image in
clockwise degrees. This is equivalent to the transform:rotate property in CSS.
Setting an alternate text
Once an image has been inserted in the content of a template, it can have an alternate text. The
alternate text will be shown in emails and on web pages at the position of the image while the
image is loading and when the image is not found. On web pages, alternate texts are also used
for accessibility.
