CellMargins

CellMargins
is an option for Cell which specifies the absolute margins in printer's points to leave around a cell.

	m	the same margins on all sides
	{{left,right},{bottom,top}}	different margins on different sides

The left margin gives the distance from the edge of the window to the left-hand side of the cell.

The right margin gives the distance from the inside of the cell bracket to the right-hand side of the cell.

The left and right margins can be set interactively in the front end using Show Ruler.

The top and bottom margins determine the amount of space to leave above and below the cell.

Cell dingbats are placed to the left of the left-hand side of the cell, and extend into the left cell margin.

Specify cell margins:
