Template:LCARS Toggle

Revision as of 22:16, 24 May 2024 by Gnai (talk | contribs) (adding a few suggestions for unicode characters)

Creates a toggle-able LCARS menu!

NOTE: To include things like tables and any sort of formatting that uses | characters within the content section of the template, substitute any | characters with {{!}}, and the code should work just fine.

The "Expand Indicator" variable allows one to set any unicode symbol as a marker to "click here". Hopefully this will increase the salience of the LCARS toggle button! Some characters that might work include: ˅, ⌄, ↕, ⇕, ⇳, ☟, ⬍, ⭥, 𝅎, 𝅏, 🡙 (but you can use whatever you want).

Example

{{LCARS Toggle
|Toggle Name = SL
|Side = Left
|Color = steelblue
|Title = Shore Leave!
|Expand Indicator = ⮟
|Content = This is some writing, blarg.
}}

which gives you

Shore Leave! ⮟

This is some writing, blarg.

Different Sides!

You can also switch the side that the text is on!

⮟ Shore Leave!

This is some writing, blarg.
