22.1.2.33 endChr

This element specifies the ending, or closing, delimiter character. Mathematical delimiters are enclosing characters such as parentheses, brackets, and braces. If this element is omitted, the default endChr is ‘)’. In other words, when the element is absent, the default is for the delimiter object beginning character to be Unicode character U+0029 (RIGHT PARENTHESIS).

When the element is present and the val attribute is absent, the default of the val attribute is empty which means the delimiter object beginning character is absent.

[Example: In the following example, {𝑎} uses { and } as its enclosing characters:

<m:dPr>
  <m:begChr m:val="{"/>
  <m:endChr m:val="}"/>
</m:dPr>

end example]

Attributes

val (value)

Specifies the character used by the parent element. When it is omitted, the parent uses its assigned default.

[Example: Accent object a:̃

<m:accPr>
  <m:chr m:val="&#771;"/>
</m:accPr>

end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Char simple type (22.1.3.3).
