This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse
, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar , or table with the collapsible attribute ), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state=
parameter may be used:
{{ Academy Award Best Visual Effects | state = collapsed}}
will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.
{{ Academy Award Best Visual Effects | state = expanded}}
will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
