import { CaptionedThumbnailElement } from "@magnit-ce/captioned-thumbnail";The <captioned-thumbnail> element is an element that shows a small image ("thumbnail") with centered caption text below it.
It can also include the ability for selection, by clicking on the element, or editing by clicking on an "edit" button that the <captioned-thumbnail> element includes.
The <captioned-thumbnail> element does not have any dependencies and can be used arbitrarily, but it was developed with the intention of mimicing OS-native file-browser apps and the common layout of their "file" display. It should function, both in selection and appearance, similarly to those inspirations.
Selection can be done either by pointer events (clicking, tapping, etc), or by key events (tab/shift+tab).
| Attribute Name | Description |
|---|---|
label |
Sets the caption. |
src |
Sets the thumbnail content to an <img> element, and sets that element's src attribute to the provided value. |
select |
If present, allows the <captioned-thumbnail> element to be selectable. If not present, prevents the element from being selectable. [Alias: selectable] |
The <captioned-thumbnail> element dispatches a change event whenever it becomes selected or unselected, if the element has a select attribute. If the element has an edit attribute, it will dispatch an edit event whenever the internal edit <button> is clicked.

An HTMLSpanElement that displays the element's thumbnail. |

The <captioned-thumbnail> element exposes the following slots:

| [Default] | Slot that holds the caption text for the item. The slot is inside of a <figcaption> element. (note: this slot has no name; all children of the <captioned-thumbnail> element that do not have a slot attribute will be placed in this default slot.) |
Text: Item
|
The <captioned-thumbnail> element can be styled with CSS, normally. The <captioned-thumbnail> element also utilizes the shadowDOM for layout, so styling the internal layout elements must be done using a ::part() selector.
In this example, the figure part is being selected for styling:
captioned-thumbnail::part(figure)
{
/* styling */
