Line 6: ==Example== The following is an example of how to use the ~~{{DPL\|variables\|~~variable}} <code>{{~~code~~DPL\|%NR%}}</code> to set the font size. This will list articles in [[:Category:Fruit examples]], by title (in descending order), limited to a count of four. Each result will be formatted to appear on a new line and the font size will be set using a [[mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##expr\|parser function (math) expression]], to a calculate the current article sequence number (starting from 1) times 0.5em, which will increase the font size each subsequent article. <pre> {{#dpl: \|category = Fruit examples \|count = 3 \|ordermethod = title \|order = descending \|format = ,\n<span style="font-size: ²{#expr:%NR% * 0.5}²em;">'''[[%PAGE%]]'''</span>,\n, }}</pre> ==Result== {{#dpl: \|category = Fruit examples \|count = 3 \|ordermethod = title \|order = descending \|format = ,\n<span style="font-size: ²{#expr:%NR% * 0.5}²em;">'''[[%PAGE%]]'''</span>,\n, }} <noinclude> [[Category:Setting the basic output mode]]
