This is a documentation subpage for Template:Scarf.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is used with {{Cell1}} for the purpose of creating a sequence of colors representing an academic scarf.

(It can also be used with the older templates {{Cell}}, {{Cell2}}, {{Cell3}} and {{Cells}} – but that usage affords less flexibility of design.)

Usage

Full width scarf

{{scarf |{{Cell1| ''colour1''}} {{Cell1| ''colour2''}} {{Cell1| ''colour3''}} ...}}

Half width scarf

{{scarf |width=50% |{{Cell1 |''colour1''}} {{Cell1 |''colour2''}} {{Cell1 |''colour3''}} ...}}

Examples

Simple scarf

{{Scarf|
  {{Cell1 |red}} {{Cell1 |orange}} {{Cell1 |yellow}}
  {{Cell1 |green}} {{Cell1 |blue}} {{Cell1 |indigo}} {{Cell1 |violet}}
}}

Complex scarf specifying scarf width, stripe widths, and an accessible description

{{Scarf
  | width = 75%
  | description = two halves of black and white, the white half divided in two by a narrow red stripe
  | {{Cell1 |width=50%   |black}}
    {{Cell1 |width=22.5% |white}}
    {{Cell1 |width=5%    |red}}
    {{Cell1 |width=22.5% |white}}
}}

Scarf colours: two halves of black and white, the white half divided in two by a narrow red stripe

Using begin/end to reduce post-expand include size

Pages with many scarf templates that include nested cell templates can cause the page to exceed the post-expand include size because the cell templates get double counted. To mitigate this, single-sided scarfs can use the begin/end syntax, e.g.:

{{Scarf | begin
  | width = 75%
  | description = two halves of black and white, the white half divided in two by a narrow red stripe}}
    {{Cell1 |width=50%   |black}}
    {{Cell1 |width=22.5% |white}}
    {{Cell1 |width=5%    |red}}
    {{Cell1 |width=22.5% |white}}
{{Scarf | end}}

Scarf colours: two halves of black and white, the white half divided in two by a narrow red stripe

A scarf with different colours on either side

N.B. the pattern must be the same on either side, only the colours can differ.

{{Scarf
  | width = 75%
  | description = blue with a narrow central white stripe on one face of the scarf, the colours reversed on the opposite face
  | {{Cell1 |width=47.5  |blue}}
    {{Cell1 |width=5%    |white}}
    {{Cell1 |width=47.5% |blue}}
  | {{Cell1              |white}}
    {{Cell1              |blue}}
    {{Cell1              |white}}
}}
