22.1.2.97 shp (Shape (Delimiters))

This element specifies the shape of delimiters in the delimiter object d. Delimiters can be centered around the math axis of the mathematical text and still be made to fit the entire height of their contents (see right-hand example below), or their height and shape can be altered to exactly match their contents (see left-hand example below). These settings significantly impact the shape of the mathematical text. When this element is omitted, delimiters are 'centered'. Whether the element is absent or present without the val attribute, the default of the val attribute is centered. [Example: In the examples below, delimiters will be matched to the exact shape of their contents contents on the left, and will be centered on the right:

Match

Centered

<m:dPr>
<m:shp  m:val="match"/>
</m:dPr>
<m:dPr>
<m:shp  m:val="centered"/>
</m:dPr>

end example]
