Parameters and typographical expressions

3.right margin. Measure. Positive numbers shorten the rule from right.

Tag Effects

Effects are visible in the WYSIWYG pane of the Articles main tab or on a page on the Pages main tab. However, because this tag may change the way how the text lines are justified, its effect is indirectly visible in the source pane of the Articles or Pages main tab.

Type and scope

Should be inserted only at the beginning of the paragraph, after or before other tags, but before any printable character. Local for the paragraph where is inserted, therefore effects cease on the end of that paragraph. May be globalized, by appending the >default< tag after.

Remarks

•Above styles may be available in your version of J library, or you can add them manually.

•>trule< is not sensible on >a< comand, therefore, when >a...< is applied it on paragraph with >trule<, the rule will remain where it was and the contents of the paragraph will shift down. You can use >mrule...< instead, to float the rule together with the paragraph.

•>mrule< is sensible on >a< comand, therefore, when >a...< is applied it on paragraph with >trule<, the rule will shift down with the contents of the paragraph. If you want to use >mrule< instead of >trule<, use >mrule 1pt,0,0,-LD<: it has the same effect as >trule 1pt,0,0,0<.
