<sz> (Nested Frameset Size)

This element specifies the size for a frameset that has been nested within another frameset. If this size appears on a root frameset, then it may be ignored and the main frameset shall encompass the entire window.

This size shall be interpreted based on the contents of the <frameLayout> element (§2.15.2.17) for the parent frameset (not the current nested frameset), as follows:

  • If the @val attribute on that element is cols, then this element specifies the width of the frameset

  • If the @val attribute on that element is rows, then this element specifies the height of the frameset

Once the axis of this measurement has been established using the criteria above, the actual value of the measurement shall be determined by the following:

  • If the @val attribute ends in a asterisk (*), then this measurement is a relative measurement (relative to all other frames in this frameset).

  • If the @val attribute ends in a percentage symbol (%), then this measurement is a percentage of the height and/or width of the parent frameset, respectively.

  • Otherwise, the value of the @val attribute specifies the size of the frameset in pixels. This measurement shall be interpreted in the context of the <pixelsPerInch> element (§2.15.2.33) to determine the width of the resulting measurement in inches.

If this element is omitted, then no information shall be implied about the size of the current frameset.

example: 
<w:frameset>
  …
  <w:frameset>
    <w:sz w:val="50%" />
    …
  </w:frameset>
  …
  <w:pixelsPerInch w:val="150" />
</w:frameset>

The <sz> element's @val attribute specifies that the size of this nested frameset is 50% - which translates to a width of fifty percent of the width of the parent frameset's height. ]

Attributes

Description

<val> (String Value)

Specifies that its contents will contain a string.

The contents of this string are interpreted based on the context of the parent XML element.

<w:pPr>
  <w:pStyle w:val="heading1" /> 
</w:pPr>

The value of the @val attribute is the ID of the associated paragraph style's styleId.

However, consider the following fragment:

<w:sdtPr>
  <w:alias w:val="SDT Title Example" />
  ...
</w:sdtPr>

In this case, the decimal number in the @val attribute is the caption of the parent structured document tag. In each case, the value is interpreted in the context of the parent element. ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_String simple type (§2.18.89).

The following XML Schema fragment defines the contents of this element:

<complexType name="CT_String">
	<attribute name="val" type="ST_String" use="required"/>
</complexType>
