AdjustmentBox

AdjustmentBox[box, opts]
is a low-level box construct which displays with the placement of box adjusted using the options given.

In the notebook front end, AdjustmentBox objects can typically be inserted and modified using Alt+LeftArrow, Alt+RightArrow, Alt+UpArrow and Alt+DownArrow (Ctrl on Macintosh). These keys move your current selection by one pixel at the current screen magnification.

	BoxMargins	{{left,right},{bottom,top}}	margins to leave around the contents of the box
	BoxBaselineShift	up	how much the baseline should be shifted relative to those of neighboring boxes

Positive margin specifications increase the spacing around box; negative ones decrease it.

Top and bottom margins affect for example placement in a FractionBox or an OverscriptBox.

In StandardForm and InputForm input, AdjustmentBox is by default ignored, so that AdjustmentBox[box, opts] is interpreted just as box would be.

Inserting an explicit spacing character such as \[ThinSpace] can have the same effect for display as AdjustmentBox, but the spacing character by default affects interpretation.

AdjustmentBox[box, opts] uses the options given only to adjust the position of box itself. Unlike StyleBox, it does not propagate the options to subboxes.

Display letters with different amounts of baseline shift:

Out[1]//DisplayForm=

Display letters with different amounts of margin:

Out[1]//DisplayForm=

Display a letter with different margins on different sides:

Out[1]//DisplayForm=

Adjustments are typically ignored when an AdjustmentBox form is interpreted as input:

Out[2]//FullForm=
