Width Problem

There's a width mismatch between two consecutive auto images, with the second one's cont parameter set as "yes". here is an example. Windroff (talk) 20:20, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch! It seems to arise when there are a different number of images in each row. I'm not yet sure whether it's a rounding issue, in which case it is likely to be difficult or impossible to fix because of the limitations of the template language or whether there's a logic error in the width calculations. I'm investigating. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:50, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've implemented a fix, which seems to work on all the cases I've tested. I'm never sure if there are any browser-specific features in the display of images in this way, so please let me know if you see any consecutive sets which don't line up properly.

By the way, it can't be guaranteed to work within 1 pixel either way because of inevitable rounding errors – each row of auto images does the calculations independently so may not come up with exactly the same total width allowing for rounding. Peter coxhead (talk) 22:59, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
