<mpadded>
The <mpadded>
MathML element is used to add extra padding and to set the general adjustment of position and size of enclosed contents.
Attributes
This element's attributes include the global MathML attributes as well as the following attributes:
depth
-
A
<length-percentage>
indicating the desired depth (below the baseline) of the<mpadded>
element. height
-
A
<length-percentage>
indicating the desired height (above the baseline) of the<mpadded>
element. lspace
-
A
<length-percentage>
indicating the horizontal location of the positioning point of the child content with respect to the positioning point of the<mpadded>
element. voffset
-
A
<length-percentage>
indicating the vertical location of the positioning point of the child content with respect to the positioning point of the<mpadded>
element. width
-
A
<length-percentage>
indicating the desired depth (below the baseline) of the<mpadded>
element.
Legacy syntax
For the depth
, height
, lspace
, voffset
and width
attributes, some browsers may instead accept a more complex syntax:
- An optional
+
or-
sign as a prefix, specifying an increment or decrement to the corresponding dimension (if absent, the corresponding dimension is set directly to specified value). - Followed by an
<unsigned-number>
(let's call it α below). - Optionally followed by a value (if absent, the specified value is interpreted as "100 times α percent").
- A unit. The specified value is interpreted the same as legacy MathML lengths.
- A namedspace constant. The specified value is interpreted as α times the constant.
- A pseudo-unit
width
,height
ordepth
. The specified value is interpreted as α times the corresponding dimension of the content. - A percent sign followed by a pseudo-unit
width
,height
ordepth
. The specified value is interpreted as α% the corresponding dimension of the content.
