}}

Example

The Wikisyntax below will create the image at right:

{{Superimpose2
  | border = 1
  | collapse = 1
  | base = Hong Kong Railway Route Map blank.svg
  | base_width = 250px
  | base_style = float: right
  | base_alt = A geographical accurate map of Hong Kong areas with only its rapid transit system lines detailed on it.
  | base_caption = Hong Kong MTR system map
  | base_link = MTR
  | float = Red Dot.svg
  | float_width = 10px
  | float_alt = a red station icon
  | float_caption = Kam Sheung Road
  | link = Kam Sheung Road Station
  | t = Kam Sheung Road
  | x = 107
  | y = 80
  | float2 = Green Dot.svg
  | float2_width = 10px
  | float2_alt = a green station icon
  | float2_caption = Quarry Bay
  | link2 = Quarry Bay Station
  | x2 = 200
  | y2 = 180
  | t2 = Quarry Bay
}}

Parameter definitions

• align: Alignment of the base image in the content
• border: Grey border line around the image rim to distinguish from the pale background if necessary. Any input will activate the border. Empty entry for no border by default.
• collapse: enabling the [show/hide] button to toggle the display of overlap layer.
• base: File name of the base (bottom) image
• base_style: Additional CSS code
• base_width: Width to display the base image, in pixels
• base_alt: alt attribute for the base image, text for visually impaired readers; see WP:ALT for properly written alt text
• base_caption: Title attribute for the base image, served as the pop-up tooltip message when mouse lays over it.
  • The pop-up message will display the alt text instead of title text in IE7 and older versions. This interpretation is now considered incorrect.
• base_link: Linking for the base image
• float: File name of the 1st layer image
• float_width: Width to display the 1st layer image, in pixels
• float_alt: alt attribute for the 1st layer image
• float_caption: Title attribute for the 1st layer image, served as the pop-up tooltip message when mouse lays over it.
• x: Distance to offset the 1st layer image from the left edge of the base image, in pixels
• y: Distance to offset the 1st layer image from the top edge of the base image, in pixels
• t: Text for the 1st layer
  • If the text exceeding the border of the base dimension is undesirable, use another layer specifically for the text only.
• link: Linking for the 1st layer image
  • When applying the 2nd-50th layer, add the number after all of the words float, x, y, t and link of floating image-related parameters to indicate their layer order as shown in the example. The image of the greater number will always appears over the smaller number layer.

Transwiki note

• Superimpose2 has the downward compactibility with the original {{Superimpose}}, if the later does not exist in your working Wiki, you can ignore the original and transwiki this version only. Preferably making a WP:redirect.
• Remember to copy {{Superimpose2/base}} as well during transwiki.
