{{Template redirect||sort-under}}
{{Uses TemplateStyles|Template:Sort under/styles.css}}

This template repositions sortable's sorting arrows under the column header's text in the same cell. It's used to narrow a table that has sorting headers wider than their data.

== Usage ==

Place {{tlc|sort under}} or its redirect {{tlc|sort-under}} above the ''sortable'' table. Add ''one'' of the following classes to the ''table start'' markup.

{| class="wikitable" style="background-color: var(--background-color-base, #fff); color: var(--color-base, #202122);"
|+ Classes for ''table start'' markup (e.g., <code><nowiki>{|</nowiki> class="{{var|value}} {{var|value2}}"</code>)
|-
! scope="col" | Class
! scope="col" | Summary
|-
| class=nowrap | <code>sort-under</code>
| Repositions sort arrows to the <em>bottom <strong>right</strong></em>.
|-
| class=nowrap | <code>sort-under-center</code>
| Repositions sort arrows to the <em>bottom <strong>center</strong></em>.
