💖 NAME 💖

PDF::FromHTML::Template::Container::Scope — bestie, it's literally just here to give your children some scope ✨

🦋 NODE NAME 🦋

SCOPE

Like, that's the name you drop in your XML when you want one of these. Periodt.

👑 INHERITANCE 👑

PDF::FromHTML::Template::Container

It's giving nepo baby — it inherits from the Container class, as it should. 💅

🌸 ATTRIBUTES 🌸

None. Not a single one. Zero. Zilch. She's serving pure structure and honestly? Iconic.

🎀 CHILDREN 🎀

None. Again — nothing declared here. Ngl, this node is lowkey a vibe-only situation.

⭐ AFFECTS ⭐

Nothing.</purpose>

🧚 DEPENDENCIES 🧚

None. She's independent, she's self-sufficient, she doesn't need anybody. Main character energy fr fr.

✨ USAGE ✨

Okay so here's the whole point of this thing. Watch:

<scope w="100%">
  <row h="18">
    <textbox text="Hello, world"/>
  </row>
  <row h="8">
    <textbox text="Goodbye, world"/>
  </row>
</scope>

So like — if you've got a bunch of nodes that all share common attribute values, but they don't have a common parent, you just give them a no-op parent. That parent does nothing except let you consolidate all your attribute specification in one place. It's the friend who holds everyone's coats at the party 🫶

In the example above, the two textbox nodes will inherit the W attribute from the scope tag. No cap — that's the whole trick. 💖
