Usage

A template to create an "issue banner", with a left, right and central component. This is a common construction in newspapers and periodicals.

This template is designed to be used in work-specific template to avoid repeating styling that's common to all issues in a work. Therefore, this template avoids setting too much styling by default.

• left, center, right: the main contents
• border-top, border-bottom: top and bottom borders
• border: top and bottom borders, used if not specified separately
• style: overall CSS style
• lstyle, cstyle, rstyle: extra styles for each section. Optional, default: blank.
• lbrace, rbrace: add a brace to the left/right of the right-hand cell. yes to enable.
• lbrace-size, rbrace-size, brace-size: size adjust for the braces, optional. Default: 1.5em
• center-left, center-right: Content on the left/right of the central region (positioned to the central side of the braces, if any). Optional. Styled with cstyle.
• align: Use to give all the text the same alignment instead of being left/center/right-aligned depending on its position in the banner.

A table can be used in any section, but you need to use {{!}} for the pipes.
