Template:Xmark/doc

This template inserts a red X inline in the text. It is often used as the opposite of {{Tick}}.

Usage

This template inserts an inline red diagonal cross (X) image, indicating negation (or some other negatory message: rejection, failure, etc.). It is not for use in articles.

The cross image defaults to 20px in size. To change the size, call with a pixel value as an argument, such as:

{{cross|30}}

The |color= or |colour= parameter can be used to change the color of the X:

color codes				output	notes
red		rd	r		the default
darkred	dkred	drd	dr
orange		or	o	File:Orange x.svg
yellow		yel	y	File:Dark yellow x.svg
black		blk	k	File:Black x.svg
grey	gray	gry	gy	File:SemiTransBlack x.svg	is actually semi-transparent

Most of the templates above are fully sortable in a class="sortable" table (each check mark is assigned an undisplayed "Y" and each cross mark an undisplayed "N").

Removed, because I'm going to rewrite this template to be drastically lighter and easier to use.
