| 40px | This is a documentation subpage for Template:-. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Use {{-}} after any floating elements and before elements you do not wish to float together with the first set. This uses a line break, which may introduce an ugly extra blank line. If you want to avoid that, use {{Clear}} instead. Do not use this template to deliberately add whitespace and blank lines between non-floating elements.
Details
{{-}} contains the markup:
<br style="clear:both;" />
This causes any previously established float to clear.
The unusual name of this template is a mnemonic for an imaginary horizontal line, which separates floating elements above from those below. Some editors prefer the mnemonic {{clr}} ("clear"), which simply redirects here. However, do not confuse {{clr}} with {{clear}}, which is a different template that uses <div /> instead of <br /> and so does not introduce an extra line break.
Examples
Template:Wrapper border=1
| align="center" | Template:Wrapper(edit talk links history)
|-
| starts a table floating right e.g. for an
infobox next to the ToC. For better
examples check out the links. Please
add missing {{-}} where necessary.
This ugly table is only a quick example.
|}
First
In the first example {{-}} after the word browser guarantees that the table does not float into the second example.
- Cute, but less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.

examples check out the links. Please

Second
In the second example the position of {{-}} is after the word but. Note that it does not affect the left margin of the bullet * list, because it is used inside of it.
- Cute, butless funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.
Template:Wrapper border=1

infobox next to the ToC. For better
examples check out the links. Please
add missing {{-}} where necessary.
This ugly table is only a quick example.
|}
Third
The third example has a new line after the word but and {{-}} after the word browser.
- Cute, but
less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.

Fourth
The fourth example has {{-}} and a new line after the word but.
- Cute, but
less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.
