Images

Double-click to enlarge

Double-click any image to enlarge its panel to near full width — double-click again to shrink it back. Useful for radiographs, ECGs and algorithm images where detail matters.

Prefer it off? Set DoubleClickToEnlargeImg: false in the template's userSettings — see customising the behaviour.

Blur-to-reveal

Images can start blurred and sharpen when clicked (click again to re-blur). This is mainly used for graphic or NSFW material — a nasty wound infection, an STI photo — so nothing confronting is on screen until you choose to look. Handy when reviewing on the bus or in the library; re-blur before moving on.

To blur an image on a card you're creating, give it the blur class in the HTML editor (< >):

<img src="rash.jpg" class="blur">

Layout and sizing

  • Tall images are allowed to render at full height — an eTG screenshot or long guideline excerpt won't be squashed
  • Side-by-side groups: images wrapped in an img-group container flow next to each other and wrap on small screens
  • Images keep consistent vertical spacing, and figure citations beneath images are styled automatically (10 pt italics)

For contributors

Guidelines for image licensing, credits and sizing live in Referencing → Images and copyright; tables containing images should be resized to a uniform height or width per the Style Guide.
