Teamplaid:Top2
- note
- using {{mid}} NECESSITATES the editor balance the list columns by placing it properly.
- Comparatively, using {{top2}} lets the computer figure out where to place the list wrap point, making alphabetizing, adding and other list maintenance tasks all the easier.
- purpose/usage
- This is an alternative "enhancement" to the templates {{top}}, {{mid}} (which this cancels the need for!) and {{bottom}}, which when used together, create a two column display useful for lists (authors, colors, etc.).
- Unlike {{mid}} which is finicky to place, this template should be placed between the {{top}} template and the first data item in the list, and then {{mid}}should NOT be used.
{{top}}
{{top2}}
* item 1
* item 2
...
* item nn
{{bottom}}
This is "common" template doc page pattern usage notes from in
- Note--hidden content above works only when included as is wikitable head end.
- This template is a First of three needed column templates when desiring to display two formated columns side by side.
- It was adapted from a Wiktionary template set with the same names.
The additional parameter (either) bgcolor or bgColor can be defined to change the default color of the template display, from the default "Transparent" color. Such an override must be applied to both {{Top}} and either {{Top2}} or {{mid}} as well... or one gets columns of two different colors.
- Default parameters
border=0 (none) width=100% (overall width) width2=48% (see below, each column's width)
|-
|bgcolor= was once "#FFFFE0" (a [[web color|light yellow]]), now "transparent",
so takes on the page background color, whatever that may be.
Default perameters may be overridden by expressing the matching named parameter.
{| border={{{border|0}}} width={{{width|100%}}}
|-
|bgcolor={{bgColor|{{{bgcolor|"#FFFFE0"}}}}}} valign=top width=48%|
... data within table
...
Parameters are:
bgColor or bgcolor affecting bgcolor
border affecting border style, including color, width, etc.
width affecting overall width, within which the inner column width is applied.
width2 setting the inner column width, should also apply same value to {{Mid}}.
Use Example shown below:
{{Top}}
*The first list of items, usually bulleted links
*2...
*3...
{{Mid}} <!-- Mid must be placed in the wrap point of the table...
half or so above, half or so below. Contrast with {{Top2}} below.
*The second list of items, usually bulleted links
*2...
*3...
{{Bottom}}

*nn-3...

*nnth item, no searching needed for midpoint
{{Bottom|2}} <!-- Use a parameter
or manually insert a </div> BEFORE the {{Bottom}} call -->

The following usage is transcluded from
This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.
Usage
deasaichA border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5%. Therefore, with a 2px border — for example, as in Wikipedia:Tutorial (Wrap-up and more info) — the width needs to be 95% for the table to fit within the screen. Since it's possible that some tables might not have a border, correction on the individual page could be made after substitution. Another way to create a two column table is like this:
{{col-begin|width=95%}}
|-
|
Left column
|
Right column
|}
|
|
{{Col-begin}} {{Col-2}} Column 1 here {{Col-2}} Column 2 here {{Col-end}} |
{{Col-begin}} {{Col-3}} Column 1 here {{Col-3}} Column 2 here {{Col-3}} Column 3 here {{Col-end}} |
{{Col-begin}} {{Col-4}} Column 1 here {{Col-4}} Column 2 here {{Col-4}} Column 3 here {{Col-4}} Column 4 here {{Col-end}} |
and so on, up to {{Col-7}} |
|
{{Col-begin|class=references-small}}
{{Col-break}}
Column 1 here
{{Col-break}}
Column 2 here
{{Col-break}}
Column 3 here
{{Col-break}}
Column 4 here
{{Col-break}}
Column 5 here
{{Col-break}}
Column 6 here
{{Col-end}}

{{Top}} Column 1 here {{Mid}} Column 2 here {{Bottom}} |
{{Columns-start|num=3}}
Column 1 here
