Description |
The Shimon Yanowitz Tower, is a Minimal Tower and a Minimal Structure, in the sense that any Wire frame model of it lies entirely on segments of orthogonal doubly ruled, Minimal Surfaces above the R2 Plane (the E2 Euclidean Space). In fact, it can be made using nothing but a mesh of lighweight, orthogonal staright wires or strings and support beams. Conversely, it is a 3-dimensional Manifold (referred to as a 2-manifold), which is a piecewise Riemannian manifold, and can be made, or covered by such segments of orthogonal doubly ruled, Minimal Surfaces. Although they appear to be curved, their curvature, as well as their tensile stress and surface energy are, in fact, all zero everywhere on them (except for minimal gravitational weight). Thus, each segment, as well as the entire Tower can be fully covered, or made by nothing more than a Soap Bubble! |

- Syntax description
- Type
- 'thumb' / 'thumbnail' or 'frame'. Causes image to be displayed with specific formatting (see below).
- Location
- 'right', 'left', 'center' or 'none'. Determines placement of the image on the page. Defaults to 'right'.
- Size
- {width}px or {width}x{height}px, scales the image to be no greater than the given width and height, keeping its aspect ratio.
- Upright
- for use only on images that are taller than they are wide. This scales the image differently, considering both width and height instead of only width.
- Border
- adds a border around the image
- Caption
- Any element which cannot be identified as one of the above is assumed to be caption text.
The option none can be used to have thumbnails without left- or right-alignment. This is probably most useful for tables. This is an example:
Additional caption formatting options are possible.
[[Image:Westminstpalace.jpg|right|thumbnail|<div align="center">This is <span style="color: green">the </span><br /> [[Palace of Westminster]]<br /> '''in <span style="color: red">London</span>'''</div>]]
- Cancelling floating-around-image mode
After having had an image floating next to text, putting further text below it and again using the full width can be done with the following markup. This blocks an image from appearing next to the material following this markup, possibly due to aesthetic reasons or a change in topics.
- <br style="clear:both" />
For legacy align="right" (etc.) floating this isn't good enough; legacy browsers would ignore inline CSS. To cancel floating under all conditions the following markup (valid XHTML 1.0 transitional) works:
- <br clear="all" />
The same code can be issued by using template {{Clr}} or {{-}} in certain namespaces (En, meta).
- Linking to the image description page
If you want to make a link to the description page for an image, use a leading colon before "image:" in an intra-wiki link, like this: [[:image:STS-32 crew.jpg|STS-32 crew]] which yields: STS-32 crew
