Here is how it will look:
Caption is Displayed (Default) | Caption is Hidden |

This option allows you to control the size and responsiveness of the Instagram Design Element. The value set should be between 320 and 1200px. Simply use the slider to set the value or type it in the input field on the right:
NOTEThe height option is not supported. This is because the embedded code is responsive and its height varies depending on the width and length of the caption.
