Add alternative text to a graphic (alt text) in Cell

's Computer Specifications

I can do a Alt text in a regular pic but when the pic is thebackground in a
cell the form to enter text is greyed out. Is there way around this?

If it is a cell in a table, you can add a title attribute

I would use the code view to do this, e.g. just type it in as
<td title='My title'>
