22.1.2.93 rSpRule

This element specifies the type of vertical spacing between columns in a matrix. The following table demonstrates possible values of rSpRule along with their definitions and examples.

Value

Line spacing between rows

Single line gap

1.5 line gap

Example (non-normative)

2 line gap

Exactly (rely on value of rGp, measured in points)

Multiple (rely on value of rGp, measured in lines)

Whether the element is absent or present without the val attribute, the default of the val attribute is 0 (or single line gap).

[Example:

<m:m>
  <m:mPr>
    <m:rSpRule m:val="2"/>
  </m:mPr>
  <m:mr>
    <m:e>
      <m:r>
        <m:t>1</m:t>
      </m:r>
    </m:e>
    <m:e>
      <m:r>
        <m:t>2</m:t>
      </m:r>
    </m:e>
  </m:mr>
  <m:mr>
    <m:e>
      <m:r>
        <m:t>3</m:t>
      </m:r>
    </m:e>
    <m:e>
      <m:r>
        <m:t>4</m:t>
      </m:r>
    </m:e>
  </m:mr>
</m:m>

Because the row spacing rule is set to 2, there is twice as much space between the matrix rows as usual.

Attributes

val (Value)

Specifies the type of spacing between rows and/or columns. Possible values are 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, whose definitions are contained in the following table:

Value

Column/Row Gap

Example

Single spacing gap (1 em)

1.5 spacing gap (1.5 ems)

2 spacing gap (2 ems)

Exactly (for columns, rely on value of cGp, measured in twips) (for rows, rely on value of
