Template:-/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:- (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Use {{-}} after any floating elements and before elements you do not wish to float together with the first set.

Details

{{-}} contains the markup:

<br clear="all" />

This causes any previously-established float to clear.

The unusual name of this template is a mnemonic for an imaginary horizontal line, which separates floating elements above from those below. Some editors prefer the mnemonic {{clr}} ("clear"), which simply redirects here.

Examples

Template:Wrapper | align="center" | Template:Wrapper (edit talk links history) |- | starts a table floating right e.g. for an
infobox next to the ToC. For better
examples check out the links. Please
add missing {{-}} where necessary.
 
This ugly table is only a quick example. |}

First

• Cute, but less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.

Second

In the first example {{-}} after the word browser guarantees that the table doesn't float into the second example. In the second example the position of {{-}} is after the word but. Note that it doesn't affect the left margin of the bullet * list, because it's used inside of it.
