[TYPO3-english] How to fix max image width for page content?

[Benoit Montereau]

Hi Joey,
Thanks for your reply, your answer regarding the position of the image
worked fine.
However, I'm not sure it's ok with the amount of images to upload. Actually
for a block "Text with image" I would like to have only one or two picture
but for blocks "Images", the number should not be limited.

I think the parameter I would need is only for FE. If users load a few
images in BE, only the first one will be displayed in FE.

I found a parameter named "styles.content.imgtext.imgMax = 2" but I don't
know how to use it because it does not seem to work.
Any tips are welcome.
BM
