ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Indent
ଛାଞ୍ଚ ଡକ୍ୟୁମେଣ୍ଟେସନ୍[view] [ସମ୍ପାଦନ କରନ୍ତୁ] [ଇତିହାସ] [purge]The indenter Template:indent performs a newline and indents by a specified number of spaces. However, the spaces are not all the same size, but rather a mixture of en-size & em-size spaces that have been tested to work on a wide range of browsers. (To skip by n equal-size spaces, instead use {{in5|n}} which puts all as the standard-size " " space.)
Usage ସମ୍ପାଦନ କରନ୍ତୁ
The indentation spacing generated by Template:indent will match the alignment of a colon-shift (":") by using {{indent|5}}, or to match "::" then align by {{indent|10}}.
Usage: {{indent|# of spaces}}
- Indents up to 30 spaces. (use
{{in5|n}}to skip up to 50 spaces) - Indent differs from {{space}} only in that it automatically begins a wrapped-newline, then spaces over n spaces, whereas {{space}} spaces over n in the same (current) line.
Examples ସମ୍ପାଦନ କରନ୍ତୁ
The following are detailed examples, also comparing to the equivalent indentation generated if a colon-shift ":" were used instead.
Example 1 - Indenting by 5:
Some text.{{indent|5}}Some more text.
Results:
Some text.
Some more text.
Example 2 - Alignment with ":" or "::" indentations:
: Line of colon-shifted text.
{{indent|5}}Line of indent-5-shifted text.
<br> Line of br-6-nbsp-shifted text.
<br> Line of br-5-nbsp-shifted text.
<br> Line of br-5-nbsp-true-shifted text.
:: Line of 2-colon-shifted text.
{{space|10}}Line of space-10-shifted text.
Results:
- Line of colon-shifted text.
Line of indent-5-shifted text.
Line of br-6-nbsp-shifted text.
Line of br-5-nbsp-shifted text.
Line of br-5-nbsp-true-shifted text.
- Line of 2-colon-shifted text.
Line of space-10-shifted text.
Note that if the prior line is already colon-shifted text, then using "{{indent|5}}" generates a blank line first, so instead, use "{{space|5}}" (or such) after a colon-shifted line.
Analysis of uneven spacing ସମ୍ପାଦନ କରନ୍ତୁ
The non-breaking " " is exactly the same size as a space (by definition, it must be the same), so it can be alternated with spaces to skip a wider area. Notice that neither {{indent}} nor {{space}} use true space-size, but rather mix en+em spaces, whereas "{{in5|n}}" will actually skip n count of spaces, as if inserting n repetitions of an " " space.
