HelpConsole 2008 SP1

On this tab, you can add a caption and a long description to your images. This feature is optional. If you don't add a caption, the image file name will display under the image by default. See Visual overview for caption and long description positioning on the gallery pages.

How to use this feature

Select the thumbnail of the image to which you want to add text
For a short caption, enter it into the Short caption text field
For a long description, enter it into the Long description text field
If you don't want a caption, select the thumbnail and check the Hide caption box

Short caption

The short caption will appear under the image on all gallery pages.

Long description

The long description will appear next to the image on the Details and Details all gallery pages. Entering breaks in the text box (by pressing the Enter key) will result in a new paragraph on the generated gallery page. Pressing Enter several consecutive times will still generate only one paragraph break in the generated gallery pages.

Batch captioning

If you want to provide the same caption for several images, multiple select (CTRL or Shift modifier keys) the images you want, and write the caption in the Short caption text field.
