$border_size variable

Paul,

Use this command:

grep -r "border_size" *

One of the files is:

design/standard/templates/content/datatype/view/ezimage.tpl

{*
 ... (other comments here) ...
 border_size   - Size of border around image, default is 0
*}
{default ... (other variables here) ...
         border_size=0}

When you call attribute_view_gui for the image, you can override the default border_size as follows:

{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.image border_size=4}

Where <b>4</b> could be any value.

Two and a half years later and I'm back in the same place.

ezimage.tpl has the following:

<code>
{if $border_size|trim|ne('')}
{set $inline_style = concat( $inline_style, 'border: ', $border_size, 'px ', $border_style, ' ', $border_color, ';' )}
{/if}
</code>

Has the following:<code>$border_size, $border_style, $border_color</code>

Shouldn't they all be in the 'insert image' dialogue?

It looks to me like user border parameters got added at some previous stage, and then half dropped. I'm not a great believer in letting the editors muck around with the layout to that extent - I'd rather just have a border:yes|no option, and sort it out in the stylesheet - but this is just silly.
