'''{{tlf|Superimpose}}''' is a utility template which superimposes one image on top another. The position of the superimposed image is relative to the top left corner of the underlying image. It is often used to display a location mark on a map image, but it can be used with any two images.

==Usage==

===Example 1===

{| style="width: 100%; margin-top: 1em"
|<pre style="margin-top: 0">
{{Superimpose
| base = US_Locator_Blank.svg
| base_width = 288px
| base_alt = Located in north central Colorado, which is just west of the center of the U.S.
| base_caption = United States Locator Map
| float = Red pog.svg
| float_width = 10px
| x = 95
| y = 80
}}</pre>
|-
|
{{Superimpose
| base = US_Locator_Blank.svg
| base_width = 288px
| base_alt = Located in north central Colorado, which in turn is just west of the center of the U.S.
| base_caption = United States Locator Map
| float = Red pog.svg
| float_width = 10px
| x = 95
| y = 80
}}
|}
{{clear}}

===Example 2===
{| style="width: 100%; margin-top: 1em"
|<pre style="margin-top: 0">
{{Superimpose
| align = center
| base = Riksveier Hedmark Sør-Trøndelag.svg
| width = 180px
| base_link = File:Riksveier Hedmark Sør-Trøndelag.svg
| float = Loc Rv3.svg
| float_link = File:Loc Rv3.svg
}}
</pre>
|-
|{{Superimpose
| align = center
| base = Riksveier Hedmark Sør-Trøndelag.svg
| width = 180px
| base_link = File:Riksveier Hedmark Sør-Trøndelag.svg
| float = Loc Rv3.svg
| float_link = File:Loc Rv3.svg
}}
|}

=== Using the Template ===

To get started, you can simply copy this blank definition into your page, and fill in the data.
{{col-float|width=18em}}
<pre style="width: 15em;">
{{Superimpose
| align =
| base =
| base_width =
| base_alt =
| base_caption =
| float =
| float_width =
| x =
| y =
}}
</pre>
{{col-float-break|width=3em}}
or
{{col-float-break|width=18em}}
<pre style="width: 15em;">
{{Superimpose
| align =
| width =
| base =
| float =
| float_caption =
}}
</pre>
{{col-float-end}}

The following blank definition includes all the parameters, including those less-commonly used.

<pre style="width: 15em;">
{{Superimpose
| align =
| width =
| base =
| base_width =
| base_alt =
| base_caption =
| base_link =
| float =
| float_alt =
| float_width =
| float_caption =
| float_link =
| x =
| y =
}}
</pre>

=== Parameter Definitions ===
* '''align:''' left, right, center, or none
* '''base:''' File name of the base (underlying) image.
* '''base_width:''' Width to display the base image, in [[pixel]]s. If not specified, then defaults to the '''width'''.
* '''base_alt:''' [[Alt text]] for the image, for visually users; see [[WP:ALT]]. This should describe the composite image.
* '''base_caption:''' Text to show when the mouse courser hovers over the base image; ignored if '''base_link''' is specified to be empty.
* '''base_link:''' Name of page that the user will be sent to if they click on the base image. The special value "<code>file:</code>", stands for the file page for the base image. If empty, nothing happens if the user clicks on the base image. The default is "<code>file:</code>".
* '''float:''' File name of the superimposed image.
* '''float_width:''' Width to display the superimposed image, in pixels. If not specified, then defaults to the '''width'''.
* '''float_alt:''' Alt text for the superimposed image. This is needed only if '''float_link''' is nonempty. Normally the alt text for the base image describes the combination of the two images, and this parameter is not needed.
* '''float_caption:''' Text to show when the mouse courser hovers over the superimposed image; ignored if '''float_link''' is missing or empty
* '''float_link:''' Name of page that the user will be sent to if they click on the superimposed image. This acts like '''base_link''', except it is for the top image, and it defaults to empty.
* '''width:''' Default width for both the base and float. This is not required if '''base_width''' and '''float_width''' are both specified.
* '''x:''' distance to offset the left edge of the superimposed image from the left edge of the base image, in pixels or any other [http://w3schools.com/cssref/css_units.asp CSS units].
* '''y:''' distance to offset the top edge of the superimposed image from the top edge of the base image, in pixels or any other CSS units.
