Masonry image Title and caption position

when I set Masonry Gallery (or portfolio) item to flexible and the title and caption to always show – the title and caption are shown right under the image – like it should, but, on some screen sizes it is shown wider then the images causing huge gaps between images and so the Masonry isn’t perfect
BUT when I set Masonry Gallery to manual (and adding portrait and/or landscape tags) the Masonry works perfect on every screen size wonderfully! (the title and caption are always in the right width – the image width which is great!!) but they are also shown over the image (instead of under it) which is very problematic with small pictures
I know I can set to only show on mouse roll over but I wish the title and caption to be shown all time, just not overlapping on the image
is there a way to fix it while keeping the Masonry perfect?
