Block: Image
Welcome to image alignment! If you recognize this post, it is because these are blocks that have been converted from the classic Markup: Image Alignment post. The best way to demonstrate the ebb and flow of the various image positioning options is to nestle them snuggly among an ocean of words. Grab a paddle and let’s get started. Be sure to try it in RTL mode. Left should stay left and right should stay right for both reading directions. On the topic of alignment, it should be noted that users can choose from the options of None, Left, Right, and Center. If the theme has added support for align wide, images can also be wide and full width. Be sure to test this page in RTL mode.

Below is a three column gallery at full width, with cropped images. Some more text for taking up space. A two column gallery, aligned to the left, linked to media file. In the editor, the image captions can be edited directly by clicking on the text. If the number of images cannot be divided into the number of columns you have selected, the default is to have the last image(s) automatically stretch to the width of your gallery. A four column gallery with a wide width: A five column gallery with normal images: This is the same gallery, but with cropped images. Six columns: does it work at all window sizes? Seven columns: how does this look on…
