22.1.2.43 grow

This element specifies the growth property of n-ary operators. When 0 or false, n-ary operators such as integrals and summations do not grow to match the size of their operand height. When 1 or true, the n-ary operator grows vertically to match its operand height. If this property is omitted, grow is set to 0.

When the element is absent, the default value of the property when it is a child of a delimiter object is 1 (meaning that this property is applied) and when it is a child of an n-ary operator object it is 0 (meaning that this property is not applied).

When the element is present and the val attribute is absent, the default of the val attribute is 1 meaning that this property is applied.

[Example: The two integrals below demonstrate the difference between grow = 0 and grow = 1.

The XML that defines nary growth is:

<m:naryPr>
  <m:chr m:val="&#8747;"/>
  <m:grow m:val="1"/>
</m:naryPr>

end example]

Attributes

val (value)

Specifies a binary value for the property defined by the parent XML element.

A value of 1 or true specifies that the property shall be explicitly applied. This is the default value for this attribute, and is implied when the parent element is present.

A value of 0 or false specifies that the property shall be explicitly turned off. This is implied when the parent element is not present.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (22.9.2.7).
