HOW TO:

Firstly, you have to download two images from the following link:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bkdoFlrw-E6ffyO-oJGNBrPnlpZch59j?usp=sharing

Here, you will find two images,
TMWindowCaption.png
&
TMWindowCaptionVR.png

Download these and place them in img/system of your project.
Now, let's get to actually using caption in a message box.
In a 'show text' command, type the following: (anywhere inside the message)
\WC[Name]

This will add a caption at the top-left of your message box.
And that's it.

You can add the following codes to the caption, to change its position:
\WCVR = Flips the caption upside down.
\WCC = Aligns the caption towards the center.
\WCL = Aligns the caption towards the left.
\WCR = Aligns it to the right.
\WCB = Puts the caption at the Bottom of the window.

Examples:
\WC[\WCCName]
\WC[\WCB\WCRName]
\WC[\WCB\WCR\WCVRName]

(There are some more functions described in the plugin, so be sure to read through it!)

PARAMETERS
In the parameters, you can:
- Change how the caption looks like. (Its font, color, size.)
- And you can customize & add captions to all the other windows in RPG Maker MV.

SOME APPLICATIONS
1- Add names to your dialogue box.
2- Add subtext, describe action, and deliver thoughts, along with the main message.
3- Add captions on all other windows: for your menu, options, title screen, and so forth.

(What other applications do you guys have in mind?)
