# width

Specifies the maximum width for an image element.

## Overview

Overview The image is shrunk to fit the bounding box if the image is bigger than the size specified for the width attribute. You must declare either a width style or attribute for an image. Declaring a style overwrites an attribute declaration. Here’s an example that sets the width for an image to 200 points. <img src="resource://mpaa-g" width="200"> Values for width Elements that Use width decorationLabel fullscreenImg heroImg img note: When an image is a child of a lockup element, the longest dimension of the image must be 70 points longer than the corresponding bounding box dimension.
