I need to put a photo credit on every picture on my site (many pictures). I cannot figure out how to do this with tooltips. Can someone give me the explanation on this. I bought a little program have added the main.ccs and style.ccs to my resources, but cannot figure out where to go from here. Do I need to edit the code (hope not) but I will if I have to.
I notices on RSD2.0 it has a tool tip class how is this used? I feel like an idiot that I cannot figure this out.

Thanks
Mary

I think these instructions from Zurb can get you on the right track.

If the pictures happen to be Picture Link elements, it will be found that the Design panel has a Title box. Anything entered in that box appears as a tool tip.

Mary's project may well be using the (now deprecated) Coffeegrinder framework: the Grid box towards the bottom of the RSD2 Layout panel will show whether this is so.

I am unsure where there may be any guidance regarding the pre-defined Coffeegrinder classes in the current RSD2 beta. If anyone has been successful in using the tooltip pre-defined Coffeegrinder class, I think it would be helpful if a sample RSD2 project file were posted here to illustrate how it was done.

So I have to think that making all my pictures into "picture links" to accomplish my goal would not be the correct way to get the job done. Correct?. I have the code string and the resources to accomplish it. I am just unsure where to put the code. I know how to find the HTLM in the S-drive just not where to place the code in relationship to the photo where i want it to appear.

RSD2 will probably have created something like the following for each picture.



To create the tooltip (e.g. This is my picture), after export I would insert the following between '<img' and 'alt':

Frank,

Thanks for the information. I can make it work. However (as you probably already know) if I export again the code goes away because I am overwriting the HTML. So in the long run this will not work. This site will be 68 pages, it is image heavy say 250 photos minimum. I cannot be adding 250 photo credit ever time I update the site. It is updated almost weekly, especially in the tourist season (actually it is always tourist season).

I was hoping that by upgrading to the newest version of RSD beta (release 4/21/17) my issue might be resolve. But still can't figure it out. Perhaps I could add a tooltip in the components if I only new how. I started in RSD 1.5 so I am in the coffeegrinder format. If I started over (a lot of work) and I could be in bootstrap would that make it easier?

Unfortunately, I am almost code ignorant and have a learning disability that prevents me from learning by reading. This makes research on the internet hard unless I can find a video, which I have not found.

Thanks again for your help.

Maybe you could create classes with the photographers' name (like .tom .dick .harry), and when Tom submits a photo, you add the class with his name to that pic? I don't know how many photographers you are dealing with, though...

At least you would be able to do it within RSD and wouldn't have to correct all the pics after each update.

Inger,
How would making the photographers name a class make it show up upon mouse over? I only have 5 regular professional photographers, the rest are mostly visitors to the Channel Islands National Park ( Califorania, USA) or our employees. It is the professionals that I must provide photo credit on the image. What ever it takes I will do it. Is it possible to add something in attributes? I have been struggling with this for weeks. I would like to get some pages "finished" but cannot without this particular aspect. I'm frustrated and disappointed that I cannot make this happen in RSD 2.0 2098 without coding it. Which goes away with every update. Please someone help me here. This is my 3rd website for my company. The first one I build in VSD and it was easy (er). I can't explain the word press site it was out of my control, I just populated it. Took forever to get my head wrapped around CCS logic (not sure I have it all the way). This has been my undoing. I desperately need to move forward with this project.

With great Hope

I think a simple, but tedious, method is to do the following with each picture in turn within RSD.

(a) Delete the Picture element.
(b) Replace it with a Picture Link element.
(c) Enter the tool-tip words in the Title box of the Picture Link element.

In view of the amount of pictures involved, this will take some time. It will, however, probably take no longer than the time otherwise likely to be spent trying to find ways of avoiding doing this.
