<mspace>

Baseline 2023

Newly available

Since January 2023, this feature works across the latest devices and browser versions. This feature might not work in older devices or browsers.

The <mspace> MathML element is used to display a blank space, whose size is set by its attributes.

Attributes

This element's attributes include the global MathML attributes as well as the following attributes:

depth: A <length-percentage> indicating the desired depth (below the baseline) of the space.
height: A <length-percentage> indicating the desired height (above the baseline) of the space.
width: A <length-percentage> indicating the desired width of the space.

Note: For the depth, height, width attributes, some browsers may also accept legacy MathML lengths.
