2. - Inserting images using the Image Manager

Above almost every text field in XOOPS when using the default XOOPS editor you will find small icons that will help you create nice articles, each icon has a different function, the 4th image lets you insert an image using the XOOPS Image Manager.

Once presed a small pop-up window will be presented to you with a selection box that alows you to select the desired image category, once the category is selected the pop-up window will display the list of images contained by the selected category.

The list of images is divided in 4 columns: "name" that displays the image's name ; "image" that displays the actuall image; "Mime type" that displays the image's extension and "Align" that contains 3 buttons which will allaw you to chose the position of the image in the article, Selecting the desired position will automaticaly insert the selected image in the article.
