Brother Tyler Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 This topic provides information on how to use all of the BBCodes available at the Bolter & Chainsword. Each post starts with a link back to this index, followed by the name of the BBCode in large text. This is followed by a brief description of how the BBCode works and provides formatting. An example is then shown first in code, then the result in a post. On occasion, multiple examples are provided. Relevant notes are provided. In some cases, examples of advanced uses are provided, first as code and then the actual appearance in a post. BBCode Name The base code for the BBCode will appear here. Description of how the BBCode works for formatting. An example of the BBCode will appear in a code box. You can highlight and copy examples in code boxes for your own use. Immediately below the example in the code box will be the exact same BBCode, activated (i.e., not in a code box). This is how the code in the box above will actually appear when the software applies the BBCode formatting. If there are any relevant notes, they will appear in italics after the examples. This may include bugs or notes when BBCodes aren't functioning. Examples of advanced usages may appear below notes and basic examples. In cases where BBCodes are used relative to other elements of a post, lorem ipsum text will appear to represent the other content. Examples of this include the clearfloat and left/right sidebars. IMPORTANT Invision has indicated that support for BBCodes will be discontinued at some time in the future. IMPORTANT The software does not preserve the BBCode in your content. Instead, when you hit the "Submit" button, the software formats the content using the BBCodes. If you go back in to edit the content, you will not see the BBCode (though you can use BBCode in your edits). Index of BBCodes All entries below are hyperlinked.

Brother Tyler Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 return to index Acronym [acronym={option}]{content}[/acronym] The acronym tag allows a post author to provide clarity when using an acronym. Text to which the BBCode is applied will be underlined, indicating to viewers that the text is active and that they should hold the mouse over it. When a viewer hovers the mouse over the text to which the BBCode is applied, the content provided in the code appears. The author should enter the spelled out term from which the acronym is created (e.g., when hovering the mouse over "TDA" the term "tactical dreadnought armour" appears). The viewer can make the dialog box disappear by clicking the mouse/pointer. [acronym=tactical dreadnought armour]TDA[/acronym] TDANote that this BBCode can also be used to provide a definition/clarification for a term, as in the example below. Which of the [acronym=The Successors of the 1st (Dark Angels) Legion collectively refer to themselves as "the Unforgiven," though the meaning behind the term is unknown to the larger Imperium of Mankind.]Unforgiven Chapters[/acronym] is your favorite?

Brother Tyler Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 return to index Background Color [background={option}]{content}[/background] This code allows the author to change the background color of text from that of the skin being used to a specific color. The author may use either the plain English name of basic web-friendly colors or the hexadecimal code for a color. [background="green"]text on a green background, plain English[/background] text on a green background, plain English [background=#008800]text on a green background, hexadecimal[/background] text on a green background, hexadecimal When using this BBCode, contrast with the font color is an important consideration. The board software will automatically use the default font color for the skin (the default site skin is white with black text, whereas the most commonly used skin is dark grey with white text). If both white and black font provide sufficient contrast with the background color you've chosen, you don't need to do anything. If one of those colors doesn't work, you should force the other color (or some other color of your choosing) using the color text/font color BBCode. You can find hexadecimal codes for many miniature paints here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Tyler Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 return to index Text Color [color={option}]{content}[/color] This BBCode allows you to specify the color of the text, instead of using the default text for the skin. The "option" specifies the color the text, using either plain English (for a limited selection of web-friendly colors) or hexadecimal (six characters, the first two for the red spectrum, the second two for the green spectrum, and the last two for the blue spectrum - the combination of which allows for the full spectrum of colors visible to the human eye). [color=red]This text is red, using the word red in the option.[/color] This text is red, using the word red in the option. [color=FF0000]This text is red, using the hexadecimal code for red in the option.[/color] This text is red, using the hexadecimal code for red in the option.Special care must be taken when using this BBCode as different members are viewing the site using different skins. While a color might work fine in the standard Carbon skin (with a dark grey background), that same color might not work so well for a member viewing the site using the mobile skin, which has a white background. It is often advisable to use this BBCode in conjunction with the background color BBCode (when the text is in a line of more text) or one of the header BBCodes (when the text is used as a header). You can find hexadecimal codes for many miniature paints here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
