Template:Background

For use on Image pages to show the image with a different background.
- Usage
- {{Background|<image name>|<size>|<caption>|background=<color>}}
- {{Background|<image name>|<size>|<caption>|bgcolor=<color>}}
- {{Background|<image name>|<size>|<caption>|bg=<color>}}
- {{Background|[[File:<image name>|<size>|<caption>]]|background=<color>}}
- {{Background|[[File:<image name>|<size>|<caption>]]|bgcolor=<color>}}
- {{Background|[[File:<image name>|<size>|<caption>]]|bg=<color>}}
Using either one of them is fine, all deliver identical results. You can also pass the known "thumb" attributes in combination with "left" or "right" for the alignment:
- {{Background|<image name>|<size>|thumb|right|<caption>|background=<color>}}
- {{Background|<image name>|<size>|thumb|left|<caption>|background=<color>}}
- {{Background|[[File:<image name>|<size>|thumb|right|<caption>]]|background=<color>}}
- {{Background|[[File:<image name>|<size>|thumb|left|<caption>]]|background=<color>}}
- Examples
- size defaults to the full width of the image (just like [[File:.. does) and
background color defaults to #E0E0E0 (i.e. the default for location maps). - {{Background|Cercle blanc 100%.svg|white circle|right|background=black}} gives the result to the right, demonstrating size default value
- {{Background|Cercle blanc 100%.svg|thumb}} results in the lower view to the right, using background color default value
- Wrapped Syntax Example
You can also just wrap a usual Image Definition, and pass it as 1st positional parameter, ..
- {{Background|[[File:Cercle blanc 100%.svg|120px|white circle on green ground|thumb|left]]|background=green}}
.. which has the same effect as using these two variants:
- {{Background|Cercle blanc 100%.svg|120px|white circle on green ground|thumb|left|background=green}}
- {{Background|Cercle blanc 100%.svg|size=120px|caption=white circle on green ground|thumb=1|align=left|background=green}}
Using the same caption as the color spec e.g. works like this:
- {{Background|[[File:Cercle blanc 100%.svg|120px|pink|thumb|right|]]|background=pink}}
- Further examples
Wikilinks in captions to a thumb are also possible:
- {{Background|[[File:Cercle blanc 100%.svg|120px|thumb|left|[[:File:Cercle blanc 100%.svg]]]]|background=#aaaaff}}
- {{Background|Cercle blanc 100%.svg|120px|thumb|left|caption=white circle|background=red}}
Note: Currently a caveat left is support of setting the background for Images embedded using the <imagemap> extension; naturally it has the same stock limitation like File/Image does..
