We have just rolled out an addition to Symbolic Images; the ability to add padding (whitespace) around the images to keep them from "bumping into" surrounding text, etc. This can be useful, for example, when using a series of symbolic images as the multiple choice answers.

An example to try:

Text above the image<br>

<EQN>Symbolic::Image("x+1", { padding => 5 })</EQN><br>

Text after the image

The 5 above will add 5 pixels of padding around the image.

Also note the use of <EQN> style tags because of the '>' character; which would cause problems if used inside of the other style of EQN tag: <EQN stuff>.

If there are other CSS styles that folks would like to have available for symbolic images (perhaps bacground color, borders, other?) let us know; we should be able to add these easily.
