Usage
[ਸੋਧੋ]Use this template to insert a fixed width gap in inline text. The default is 2em.
For example,
Hello{{gap|3em}}world!
yields "Helloworld!"
If no argument is given, the default is 2em:
Hello{{gap}}world!
yields "Helloworld!"
For a real example of it in use, see en:Page:An introduction to physiological and systematical botany (1st edition).djvu/542.
Deprecated or incorrect usage
[ਸੋਧੋ]Please note: This template is not intended to produce indented paragraphs, double spacing after full stops (periods), or offsets from the right.
Indentation
[ਸੋਧੋ]The house style of Wikisource is to separate paragraphs with a double line break, rather than to indent them, except in cases such as poetry where the formatting might be considered part of the text.
Offsetting right-aligned text
[ਸੋਧੋ]Please do not use
{{right|This is incorrect{{gap}} }}
{{Right}} has a parameter offset for this:
{{right|This is correct|offset=2em}}
The reason for this is that if the line wraps, the {{gap}} will go to the next line, where it will be invisible, and the text will end up right up against the right margin:
The {{gap}} here is in a blue box:
Compare to setting an offset of 4em:
The text retains its offset even when it wraps.
