Remarks

A tile template is a string, which can include simple text, HTML tags, and predefined variables. Within a template you can use the following:

  • tags: <p> and <span>
  • attributes: style, rows (for <p> tag only), width (for <span> tag only; in percents or in pixels), and align (for <span> tag only; can be left, right, and center)
  • styles: color, font-size (percent value, pixels like 12px, or points like 10pt), font-style (italic or normal), and font-weight (bold or normal)

The following predefined variables are available in templates:

Variable nameReturned value
FileNamefile name
FileSizefile size
FileTypefile type
DateModifiedfile last modification date
Dimensionsimage size in pixels; an empty string for non-image files
Descriptionuser-given description of the file
Tagtag of the file; the tag can be specified via the tag property

To utilize a predefined variable in a template, you should put variable's name in square brackets.

Note

White spaces are not allowed between the '<' and the tag name, between '</' and the tag name, or inside '/>'.

The sample below demonstrates how to use tags, style, and predefined variables described previously; you can see the resulting tiles in the following figure:
