Template:Display box

This template is adapted from Template:Robelbox2. The main differences are summarized below.

Robelbox2	Display box
predefined color themes	arbitrary colors
border	no border
optional icon	no icon

The border (and other aspects) could be made customizable in the future, if desired. Also, icons could be added back in; they were removed for simplicity.

Notes

• This template was originally created for use on Eventmath, and the default colors reflect this.
• A more flexible template is Colored box, but it would need to be imported to Wikiversity. I didn't find the Colored box template in my initial search before creating this Display box template.--Greg at Higher Math Help (discuss • contribs) 08:24, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
