Diagrams with Graphviz

To get the best looking class diagrams for your documentation, generate them with Graphviz as vector graphics with transparent background:

# Doxyfile
HAVE_DOT = YES
DOT_IMAGE_FORMAT = svg
DOT_TRANSPARENT = YES

In case INTERACTIVE_SVG = YES is set in the Doxyfile, all user-defined dotgraphs must be wrapped with the interactive_dotgraph CSS class in order for them to be rendered correctly:

<div class="interactive_dotgraph">
 
\dotfile graph.dot
 
</div>

Note: Both the default overflow scrolling behavior in this theme and the interactive editor enabled by INTERACTIVE_SVG are unsatisfying workarounds IMHO. Consider designing your graphs to be narrow enough to fit the page to avoid scrolling.

Disable Dark Mode

If you don't want the theme to automatically switch to dark mode depending on the browser preference, you can disable dark mode by adding the light-mode class to the html-tag in the header template:

The same can be done to always enable dark-mode:

Warning: This only works if you don't use the dark-mode toggle extension.

Choosing Sidebar Width

If you have enabled the sidebar-only theme variant, make sure to carefully choose a proper width for your sidebar. It should be wide enough to hold the icon, project title and version number. If the content is too wide, it will be cut off.

html {
    /* Make sure sidebar is wide enough to contain the page title (logo + title + version) */
    --side-nav-fixed-width: 335px;
}

The chosen width should also be set in the Doxyfile:

# Doxyfile

TREEVIEW_WIDTH = 335

Formatting Tables

By default tables in this theme are left-aligned and as wide as required to fit their content. Those properties can be changed for individual tables.

Centering

Tables can be centered by wrapping them in the <center> HTML-tag.

Code
<center>

| This table | is centered |

|------------|----------------------|

| test 1 | test 2 |

</center>
Result

This table is centered

test 1 test 2

Full Width

To make tables span the full width of the page, no matter how wide the content is, wrap the table in the full_width_table CSS class.

Warning: Apply with caution! This breaks the overflow scrolling of the table. Content might be cut of on small screens!

Code
<div class="full_width_table">

| This table | spans the full width |

|------------|----------------------|

| test 1 | test 2 |

</div>
Result

This table spans the full width

test 1 test 2
