Common prefixed units are in bold face.

Usage

[edit]
  • Empty arguments such as m=, c=, n= will turn the corresponding prefix in bold face.
  • Arguments prefixed by "x" will replace the default text for that prefix (for example for a link).
  • For μ use either mc= or μ= (note: this is the Greek letter "lowercase mu", μ).
  • right= will make the template float right
  • The anchor parameter can be used to enable linking to e.g. #SI prefixed forms of metre directly to wherever the template is on the page. Note that the anchor text should contain underscores (_) rather than whitespace.
