ފަންވަތް:Multiple image
This template creates a box containing between two and ten images, arranged either vertically or horizontally and with captions for the entire box or per image.
With the appropriate choice of parameters, the template can automatically resize images to a given total width with each image having the same height.
Be aware that this template does not respect users' default image size preferences. (Wikipedia:Image use policy states: ފަންވަތް:Tq states that a fixed width in pixels may only be specified, ފަންވަތް:Tq)[lower-alpha 1]
If image size parameters are omitted, this template sets all images at 200px wide, regardless of whether the reader has set a preference for some other default image width. This causes multiple images to look out of scale to the other images in an article.
Syntax and parameters
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]Provide height[n] and total_width parameters to obtain automatic resizing. Note the different meanings of the width[n] parameters with vs. without automatic resizing. Please also note the option to set a total_width parameter at the beginning of the multiple image template.

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| align | right (default), left, center |
| direction | horizontal (default), vertical |
| background color | To set the background color of the box in which the images appear. |
| header_background | |
| header_align | center (default), left, right |
| header | |
| width | Use to set the same width for each image (i.e. overrides any ފަންވަތް:Mono below). Do not include if different image widths intended, including if images are to be resized to a fixed total width. |
| total_width | Use to scale the images to the same height and this total width. Do not use both ފަންވަތް:Mono and ފަންވަތް:Mono. |

If the images have a clear background, this will by default be changed to white. To make the background color of the images match, set them with image_style=background-color. You might want to also remove the border.

Using direction
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]By default, the images the template presents are displayed horizontally, as a row (see left; equivalent to setting ފަންވަތް:Mono). To display them vertically, i.e. as a column, set ފަންވަތް:Mono (see right).
On mobile devices some images may always be displayed vertically if the total width is larger than around 320.
To match image heights
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]- Decide on a total width for all the images, say 320px
- Set the total width using
|total_width=
{{multiple image
| align = right
| total_width = 320
| image1 = Donkey 1 arp 750px.jpg
| alt1 = A donkey
| caption1 = Rectangular image of a donkey, originally 536 pixels high.
| image2 = Rainbow_trout.png
| alt2 = A trout
| caption2 = Square image of a trout, originally 300 pixels high.
| footer = Both images have been rendered with the same height, and a total width of 320px
}}
Using the width[n]= and height[n]= parameters.
width2 x height2 = 900 x 900.width3 x height3 = 100 x 200.width4 x height4 = 200 x 100.{{multiple image
| align = right
| total_width = 480
| image1 = Rainbow_trout.png
| caption1 = Square image of a trout, originally 300 x 300 pixels.
| image2 = Rainbow_trout.png
| width2 = 900
| height2 = 900
| caption2 = <code>width2</code> x <code>height2</code> = 900 x 900.
| image3 = Rainbow_trout.png
| width3 = 100
| height3 = 200
| caption3 = <code>width3</code> x <code>height3</code> = 100 x 200.
| image4 = Rainbow_trout.png
| width4 = 200
| height4 = 100
| caption4 = <code>width4</code> x <code>height4</code> = 200 x 100.
| footer = All images have been rendered with the same height except for image3, which is 100/200 = 1/2 the height of the other images. Image4 is 200/100 = 2 times the height of image1, so only its top half is visible. Total width set to 480px.
}}
The aspect ratio of each image is automatically retrieved from the File metadata. You can override the native width and height values by
- Examining the individual image pages to obtain the full resolution. For example:
- File:Donkey 1 arp 750px.jpg shows "Donkey_1_arp_750px.jpg (750 × 536 pixels, file size: 125 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)"
- File:Rainbow trout.png shows "Rainbow_trout.png (300 × 300 pixels, file size: 158 KB, MIME type: image/png)"
- Specify the full width and height for each image, of the form:
|width1=|height1=|width2=|height2=
Multiple rows
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]To create an array of images, with multiple rows, use |perrow=. The value passed to |perrow= may be a single number, or a list of numbers delimited by /. This feature may also be combined with |total_width= for multiple rows of images with the same total width.
{{multiple image|perrow = 2|total_width=300
| image1 = Kern_Theodolit_DKM2-A.jpg
| image2 = Total-Robotic-Station.jpg
| image3 = DumpyLevel.jpg
| image4 = GPS_Survey_Equipment_at_Weir_Dyke_Bridge_-_geograph.org.uk_-_336908.jpg
| footer = Surveying Equipment. Clockwise from upper left: Optical Theodolite, Robotic total station, [[Real-time kinematic|RTK]] GPS Base station, Optical level.
}}
Removing the image border
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]The border around the images can be removed using |image_style=border:none.
{{multiple image
| align = right
| total_width = 320
| image_style = border:none;
| image1 = Donkey 1 arp 750px.jpg
| alt1 = A donkey
| caption1 = Image of a donkey
| image2 = Rainbow_trout.png
| alt2 = A trout
| caption2 = Image of a trout
}}
Increasing the gap between images
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]The gap between the images can be increased using |image_gap=N, where N is the number of pixels (must be non-negative).
{{multiple image
| align = right
| total_width = 320
| image_gap = 20
| image1 = Donkey 1 arp 750px.jpg
| alt1 = A donkey
| caption1 = Image of a donkey
| image2 = Rainbow_trout.png
| alt2 = A trout
| caption2 = Image of a trout
}}
Directly invoking module

TemplateData
[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]Multiple image
This template creates a box with two to ten images arranged vertically or horizontally with captions for the entire box and each image.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |

| Alignment | align | Sets text-wrapping around image box, where "none" places the box on the left edge with no text-wrapping, "center" places the box at center with no text-wrapping and "left" and "right" refer to position of box on screen with text-wrapping.
| String | optional |
| Direction | direction | Direction in which to tile the images.
| String | suggested |
| Frame width | total_width | Use to scale the images to the same height and this total width. Do not use both total_width and width. Integer width in pixels; no "px" suffix

| String | optional |
| Image width | width | Width overrides Width 1, Width 2, Width 3, etc. If you want the images to be different sizes, do not provide the width parameter. Integer width in pixels; no "px" suffix
| Number | optional |
| Background color | background color | Defines the background color between the border of the box and the images. Changing the background can be bad for accessibility, avoid when possible.

If specified to the empty value, the image does not link anywhere; this should be used for purely decorative images as per [[WP:ALT]]. Important: If the image is under a free license like the GFDL or a CC license, you must not use this parameter as the terms of those licenses require the license, or a link to it, to be reproduced with the image. The image must, therefore, link to its image page. Public domain and (theoretically) non-free use images are not subject to this restriction. | Page name | optional |
