This page is part of Wikibooks Trainz Wikibook Administration. • It lists a template which may be useful editing Trainz. Trainz specific (special purpose) templates will be found in or under Category:Trainz Templates, which also lists/links to this Help page. |
- Purpose
Creates a standardized HTML quote bounded style string with options that can be overridden locally. It is in effect, a poor-man's CSS class element, but one which one does not need ADMIN privileges to edit.
The format created by this style replicates a wikimarkup line with a leading whitespace character, like these two lines.
- It's usual and intended use is in long-tables, mainly those showing examples of Trainz data structures, or sample config.txt files.
- This template provides compatible formatting to duplicate the appearance of the monospace tables the N3V staff used when building pages for Kinds, containers and so forth.
- Using this template to set the style allows a wikitable to neaten up the staffs ragged efforts, and make things more readable with uniform sized columns, alternative fonts, embedding links, and so forth.
- usage
- This template is meant to be used in an HTML style tag after the
< '...' >
so as to form HTML format commands like:
{| style= {{Pseudo-table}}
and forms the pre-quoted string above. The raw code has over-ride parameters B,BG,CO,MW,W,P,M
- Over ride parameters shown below
"padding: {{{P|1em}}}; border: {{{B|1px dashed rgb(47, 111, 171)}}}; color: {{{CO|black}}}; background:{{{BG|rgb(249, 249, 249)}}}; max-width:{{{MW|{{{maxwidth|68%}}}}}}; width:{{{W|{{{width|68%}}}}}}; align:{{{AL|left}}}; font-face:{{{F|monospace}}}; font-size:{{{S|10pt}}}; {{{other|}}};"
- The default width is shown above, but the template call can be given an alternative width as follows:
- form the call:
{| style={{pseudo-table|width=XX%}}
versus the default{| style={{pseudo-table}}
- form the call:
- The format also provides for other format parameters to be included in the style block by defining the parameter 'other'.
- for example: |other=color:blue; would assert the table contents as a blue font. Other HTML/CSS formatting elements are equally valid.
- for other examples...
