The +width=
query printout formatter for columns was introduced in Semantic MediaWiki 3.0.0Released on 11 October 2018 and compatible with MW 1.27.0 - 1.31.x..
Rationale[edit]
Allows to define a width for the table column for result format "table"Outputs the results in a table (default for queries with printout statements). or result format "broadtable"Outputs the results in a broad table. using the +width=
query parameter. Thus it enables different tables on the same page to be formatted with the same width without relying on result format "template"Uses a specified template to format and display the results or individually defined CSS classes added via the class
parameter.
The value set with the +width=
query parameter denotes the width the respective result column should take. The value consists of an integer together with either "%
", "px
" or "em
" as a unit like e.g. |+width=50%
, |+width=25px
or |+width=10em
.
mainlabel
query parameter.2 See the example below on how to still achieve the desired printout easily.Examples[edit]
- Syntax
{{#ask: [[Category: Foo]] |?Has text |+width=50% |?Has number |+width=10em |?Has date |+width=20px |format=table }}
or
{{#ask: [[Category: Foo]] |?Has text |+width=50% |?Has number |+width=10em |?Has date |+width=20px |format=broadtable }}
- Syntax for manipulating the main result column
{{#ask: [[Category: Foo]] |? |+width=20% |?Has text |+width=50% |?Has number |+width=10em |?Has date |+width=20px |format=table |mainlabel=- }}
What you do here is that you hide the main result column with |mainlabel=-
and add it at the same time with |?
which in turn allows you to apply the query parameter described on this page.
