I see places in older versions of Rapidweaver where it says alt tag for images, but in Classic all I see are title and notes in the image inspector. I’m trying to make my website ADA compliant, but I am not seeing where to add the tags on each image? There must be an easy way to do this, but it is escaping me. TIA! ---

Well that was easy! Anything special to add to the text, or is a simple description sufficient? Thanks for the quick response! ---

As you noticed in my example, I put the word “edge” in the alt-tag box of the old RW. This forces the graphic to stretch to the right border. This is without the word “edge” in the alt-tag field - [CleanShot 2026-02-24 at 13.39.54 · CleanShot Cloud](https://share.cleanshot.com/vcPDfWqL) This is with the word “edge” in the alt-text tag - [CleanShot 2026-02-24 at 13.37.42 · CleanShot Cloud](https://share.cleanshot.com/Bs25hSpx) To the larger Elements community… is there a way in Elements that I can do something similar? Is there a place I can add the word “edge”? In Elements, how do I force a graphic to stretch to the edge? ---

Use the cover setting in the images settings. ---

The challenge is that the image is called as a resource from a Markdown file. Here is how it displays. It would be nice to stretch it to the right. [CleanShot 2026-02-24 at 14.48.51 · CleanShot Cloud](https://share.cleanshot.com/l70BDZ1m) Here is the page that displays it. [CleanShot 2026-02-24 at 14.50.08 · CleanShot Cloud](https://share.cleanshot.com/B1BnVvb8) Here is the Markdown file that it references.

Where do I find this “cover setting”? I didn’t see it when I double clicked the image and the pop up opened with the alt tag field. ---

I think @Fuellemann was referring to Elements, not RW classic. Just put the word “edge” in the alt-tag field after you double-click the image. That will force the image to the closest right side border. ---
