I've inserted an image in a Confluence page. There does not seem to be an option to add a caption to provide a short explanation of the image.

I found a link - https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AOD/Displaying+Images that "explains" how to add a caption.

Add a caption to an image:

  • Choose Effects in the image properties panel and choose the Instant Camera image effect. Save the page.
  • Choose Tools > Attachments to go to the 'Attachments' view of the page.
  • Choose Properties next to the image file.
  • Add a comment to the attachment. The text in your comment will appear as the image caption.

When I follow the instructions, I do not see a Properties for the image or a comment.

My workaround is to add a 1x2 cells table that holds the image in the upper cell and the caption in the lower one.

A native implementation would be great though.
