+======== Overlay Info                                        [section:overlay]
+
+Overlay info format string syntax is: %tag[:max_length][:extra]%
+
+  %name%       Filename of the picture.
+  %collection% Name of the collection
+  %number%     Current number of image in the list
+  %total%      Total number of images

+  %size%       File size
+  %width%      Image width
+  %height%     Image height
+  %res%        Image resolution
+  
+  To access exif data use the exif name:
+  %Exif.Photo.DateTimeOriginal%	Date of the original shot
+
+  Pre-formatted exif data is also available:
+  formatted.Camera              Camera and sofware name
+  formatted.DateTime            Image Date
+  formatted.ShutterSpeed        Shutter speed in seconds (ie. 1/60s)
+  formatted.Aperture            Aperture (ie. f5.6)
+  formatted.ExposureBias        Exposure bias (ie. +0.3)
+  formatted.ISOSpeedRating      ISO sensitivity (ie. 100)
+  formatted.FocalLength         Focal length
+  formatted.FocalLength35mmFilm Focal length 35mm
+  formatted.SubjectDistance     Subject distance
+  formatted.Flash               Flash
+  formatted.Resolution          Resolution
+  formatted.ColorProfile        Color profile
+
+  You can limit the length of displayed data using :number notation:
+  %formatted.Camera:20% will truncate the displayed data to 20 characters
+  and will add 3 dots at the end to denote the truncation.
+
+  If two or more variables are connected with the |-sign, it prints available
+  variables with a separator:
+  %formatted.ShutterSpeed%|%formatted.ISOSpeedRating%|%formatted.FocalLength%
+  could show:
+    "1/20s - 400 - 80 mm"
+  or
+    "1/200 - 80 mm" if there's no ISO information in the Exif data.
+
+  If a line is empty, it is removed.
+  This allows to add lines that totally disappear when no data is available.
+
+  Extra string uses special character '*' to mark the position of the data.
+  If no '*' is present, then extra string is just appended to data.
+  Any "\n" is replaced by a newline on display.
+  Pango mark up is accepted in left and right parts.
+  If data is empty, nothing will be displayed.
+
+  Examples:
+  "%name:<i>*</i>\n%" -> name is displayed in italics ended with a newline
+  "%size:\n%"         -> size is displayed with a newline at end
+  "%formatted.ISOSpeedRating:ISO *%"      -> ie. "ISO 100"
+  "Collection <b>*</b>\n" -> display collection name in bold prefixed by
+                             "Collection " and a newline is appended
+
