Use {{tl|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} after any floating elements and before elements you do not wish to float together with the first set. This uses a line break, which may introduce an ugly extra blank line. If you want to avoid that, use {{tl|clear}} instead. Do not use this template to deliberately add whitespace and blank lines between non-floating elements.

== Details ==
{{tl|-}} contains the markup:
<pre>
 
</pre>
This causes any previously-established float to clear.

The unusual name of this template is a [[mnemonic]] for an imaginary horizontal line, which separates floating elements above from those below. Some editors prefer the mnemonic {{tl|clr}} ("clear"), which simply redirects here. However, don't confuse {{tl|clr}} with {{tl|clear}}, which is a different template that uses <code><nowiki><div /></nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki> </nowiki></code> and so does not introduce an extra line break.

== Examples==
{{Wrapper}} border=1
| align="center" | {{Lts|Wrapper}}
|-
| starts a table floating right e.g. for an infobox next to the ToC. For better examples check out the links. Please add missing <tt><nowiki>{{-}}</nowiki></tt> where necessary.   This ugly table is only a quick example.
|}
=== First ===
In the first example <tt><nowiki>{{-}}</nowiki></tt> after the word ''browser'' guarantees that the table doesn't float into the second example.
* Cute, but less funny if it ''overlaps'' the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.{{-}}

=== Second ===
In the second example the position of <tt><nowiki>{{-}}</nowiki></tt> is after the word ''but''. Note that it doesn't affect the
left margin of the bullet '''*''' list, because it's used inside of it.
