Template:Brace border

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

Create a box with "brace borders"

• side: one of left, right, lr, top, bottom, tb
• outside: outset the border so the contents is inline with neighbouring content.
• shrink: Shrink to fit content as inline block element (optional - by default fills horizontal space)

Example

{{brace border|side=lr|shrink=y|Some content}}
{{brace border|side=right|shrink=y|Some content}}
{{brace border|side=top|shrink=y|Some content}}

Some content

Some content

Some content

Example: Use of outside parameter

You can use some padding on the containing element to give the border a space to "spill" into:

{| class="wikitable"
| style="padding-left:10px;" | Some content
|-
| style="padding-left:10px;" | {{brace border|side=lr|Content is inset by border width}}
|-
| style="padding-left:10px;" | {{brace border|side=lr|outside=y|Same left margin as top cell}}
|}

Some content

Content is inset by border width

Same left margin as top cell

Notes

• The border width is 10px.
• This will not export properly until phab:T256780 is resolved (but then neither will {{brace2}} until phab:T270589 is resolved)
