Snið:Location map

[breyta] Leiðbeiningar

Þessar leiðbeiningar eru ítengdar frá Snið:Location map/doc. (breyta | breytingaskrá)

Creates a location map as a composite image of an existing map in equirectangular projection with a marker and an optional label superimposed onto it. Note:

Using "caption=xxx" frames the map (empty "caption=" leaves map unframed).
The marker/label is not checked for valid latitude/longitude & could land anywhere on the article page, even beyond the bottom.
To suppress the marker, set marksize=1 pixel wide.
For map "width=250" omit "px" or map will stretch across page.
To place multiple markers/labels, refer below to: See also.
To map along converging longitudes, refer to: Template:Location_map_skew.

Usage[breyta frumkóða]

{{Location map
 |''location''
 |label      = ''label text''
 |label_size = map font size, per cent
 |alt        = [[WP:ALT|Alt text]] for image (defaults to generic description)
 |position   = left ''or'' right ''or'' top ''or'' bottom ''or'' none – 
                position of the label relative to the mark, defaults to ''right''
 |background = ''color'', background color for the label, defaults to none 
 |lon_dir=W    longitude: W=west, E=east (default)
 |lat_dir=S    latitude: S=south, N=north (default)
 |lat_deg    = ''latitude'' degrees
 |lat_min    = ''latitude'' minutes
 |lat_sec    = ''latitude'' seconds
 |lon_deg    = ''longitude'' degrees
 |lon_min    = ''longitude'' minutes
 |lon_sec    = ''longitude'' seconds
 |lat        = ''latitude'' (decimal format; enter negative numbers for southern latitude)
 |long       = ''longitude'' (decimal format; enter negative numbers for western longitude)
 |mark       = ''marker image file name'', a red dot by default
 |marksize   = ''marker size'', default=8
 |border     = ''border color'' or ''none''
 |caption    = ''map caption''; for no caption enter "caption="; if the parameter is omitted then the caption will be "Marker text (location map name)"
 |float      = left ''or'' right ''or'' center ''or'' none
 |width      = ''map width'' (omit "px" or will stretch across page)
 |AlternativeMap = Alternative map file name (changes background map, border coordinates are determined based on the map name); this is only recommended for use in templates
}}

Parameter location refers to {Template:Location map location} containing the name and coordinates of a map.
