You can specify options that affect title placement, use of anchors, some aspects of alignment, and numbering of figures.
By default, DITA2Go puts figure titles below images on output, but puts the IDs for figure titles above the images, so that links to an image in HTML show the whole image and the title, not just the title.
To keep the figure title above the image:
[FigureOptions] ; FigTitleAboveImage = No (default, links moved so browsers show the ; figure, not just the title), or Yes (DITA style, title above image) FigTitleAboveImage = Yes
If you use a fig element to hold a simpletable (so the simpletable can have a title; see §14.6 Treating figure titles as table titles), by default DITA2Go puts the title above the table on output, which generally looks better.
To keep the figure title below the table:
[FigureOptions] ; FigTitleAboveTable = Yes (default, figure titles look better above ; a table) or No (normal figure style, title below table) FigTitleAboveTable = No
Some output types might require figures to be anchored in paragraphs.
To specify a format for figure-anchor paragraphs:
[FigureOptions] ; UseFigureAnchor = Yes (default, use anchor para) or No (for special ; cases, will break many normal use cases) UseFigureAnchor = Yes ; FigureAnchorFormat = name of format to use for figure anchor para ; when TitleAboveImage = No FigureAnchorFormat = FigurePara
Anchor paragraphs in table cells should contain at least one character in addition to the image, even if the character is just a nonbreaking space, to keep the image inline.
To specify alignment on output for any image with attribute @placement="break":
[FigureOptions] ; GraphicAlignment = image alignment when placement="break": left, ; right, or center, default left GraphicAlignment = left
Note: DITA2Go ignores all special <fig> attributes except for @placement, @width, @height, and @alt.
To specify numbering and a label for figure titles, see §8.5.3 Defining number subformats.
