The following attributes are available on this element: Universal attribute group, outputclass, @keyref
, and the attributes
defined below.
@href
@scope
@scope
attribute identifies the
closeness of the relationship between the current
document and the target resource. Allowable values
are local, peer, external, and -dita-use-conref-target. See The scope attribute for more
information on values.@height
@width
@align
@scale
@height
or @width
attribute (or both), the @scale
attribute is ignored.It is an error if the value of this attribute is not an unsigned integer. In this case, the implementation might give an error message and might recover by ignoring this attribute.
@scalefit
@height
,
@width
, or @scale
is specified, those attributes determine the graphic
size, and any setting of @scalefit
is ignored. If none of those attributes are
specified and scalefit="yes"
, then
the image is scaled (the same factor in both
dimensions) so that the graphic will just fit within
the available height or width (whichever is more
constraining). The available width would be the prevailing column (or table cell) width - that is, the width a paragraph of text would have if the graphic were a paragraph instead. The available height is implementation dependent, but if feasible, it is suggested to be the page (or table cell) height or some other reasonable value.
@placement
@longdescref
