Demo · image in a frame
Fill, fit or original format.
Kits show images in frames with a fixed aspect ratio. If a subject does not fit – portrait in widescreen, a logo, a graphic – editors choose per image and placement how it goes into the frame. Here the same portrait photo three times in a 16:9 grid.
Same photo, three settings

How it works
Per placement or as the image default.
-
Three modes
Fill crops (with focal point), fit shows the whole image, original lets the frame follow the image.
-
Background
When fitting: transparent, blurred subject, fixed colour or a kit colour – which switches with the dark colour scheme.
-
Where to set it?
In the block at the image (“Image in a frame”) for this placement – or in the media library as the default everywhere.
-
No kit changes
Classes on the image and a small core stylesheet – strict CSP, no inline styles, works in every kit.
