Captions under each photo
Under each image in the photo report, two fields are available:
- Photo number
- Photo description
Photo Captions in a Photo Report
Photo captions help structure the photo report and make the photo documentation understandable for analysis and client delivery. The function combines numbering and photo description, forming a single caption text for each image. Used in preparing photo reports, photo tables, and inspection documentation in construction, expert assessment, and field work.
Where to Add Photo Captions
The service provides two ways to add or edit a description for a specific photo:
Captions in the photo list
On each photo report page, a photo list is available (opens via a button). In this list:
- all images of the current report are shown;
- number and description fields are available for each photo;
- you can quickly edit captions for multiple images.

Photo Numbering
Automatic numbering with prefix
The number field can be filled automatically:
- set a prefix (e.g., "Photo");
- the prefix can be set:
- on the first page of the photo report;
- or in the advanced report settings;
- click the button next to the prefix — the system automatically numbers all photos.
Why this is important
Automatic numbering:
- ensures a uniform photo report format;
- reduces the chance of errors with manual entry;
- speeds up photo documentation preparation when many images are involved.
Forming the Final Caption
The final photo caption is formed automatically from two parts:
- photo number;
- description text.
Standard Photo Descriptions
Adding description templates
In the table layout of the photo report, next to the description field there is a function to:
- add text to the list of standard descriptions.
Reuse
Standard descriptions:
- are available across all user photo reports;
- allow quick caption filling without retyping;
- can be edited and deleted on the profile page.
Why this is important
Using templates:
- speeds up the image annotation process;
- ensures a consistent photo description style;
- reduces human error when preparing reports.
Fast Caption Filling
Keyboard navigation
In the photo list, navigation using the Tab key is supported:
- the cursor moves sequentially between fields;
- you can quickly enter numbers and descriptions for many images.
Practical application
This function is especially useful when you need to:
- caption a large volume of photos;
- prepare a photo report under tight deadlines;
- ensure consistent captions in a photo table.
The Role of Captions in a Photo Report
Proper photo captions are a key element of quality photo documentation. They allow you to:
- unambiguously identify the image;
- convey context (location, work stage, defect);
- increase the report's value for the client;
- simplify later analysis and data verification.
