ContentSize
ContentSize
is an option for Manipulate and other functions that specifies the size of the content area to use.
- The following settings can be given:
-
| w | width specified by w |
| {s} | maximum width and height specified by s |
| {w,h} | explicit width and height |
| {{wmax},{hmax}} | width and height maximums |
| {{wmin,wmax},{hmin,hmax}} | width and height ranges |
- Specifications for both width and height can be any of the following:
-
| Automatic | automatically size to fit |
| d | d printer's points (before magnification) |
| 72di | di inches (before magnification) |
| Full | fill out the enclosing region |
| Scaled[s] | a fraction s of the enclosing region |
- With the setting ContentSize->Automatic, functions like Manipulate use a content area that fits the content given and also allows room for controls. The content area is never wider than the available notebook or other area.
- If ContentSize specifies a content area that does not completely fit the contents, then unless specified otherwise with AppearanceElements, functions like Manipulate display a resize area, as well as scrollbars when necessary.
By default, Manipulate leaves just enough space for its contents:
Specify custom content area and allow manual resizing:
Manipulate automatically attaches scrollbars if the content area is too small:
Specify ImageSize->Full for graphics to allow resizing with the content area:
