Template parameters

Parameter	Description	Default	Status
`1 ... 40`	file derived from (up to 40 unnamed parameters can be used, for 40 files)	empty	required
`display`	size in pixels of thumbnail of files derived from. If not provided, no thumbnail is shown.	empty	optional
`opt`	an additional option for {{F}}, e.g. "l" (left) or "b" (bordered)	empty	optional
`by`	a user name, displayed by {{By}} as parameter for {{U}} or a colon ":" - see #Colon	empty	optional

Additional information

The template is intended to be used in the following namespaces: the File namespace

The template is intended to be used by the following user groups: all users

Colon

The template finishes its display with a new line; when the template is used just to display the text, like
{{ Derived from }} - This file was derived from: which will not be appropriate if continuation in the same line is required; the new line can be avoided by using a colon instead of the missing user name, e.g.
{{ Derived from | by = : }}{{ F | Example.svg }}{{ By | example }}<br> - This file was derived from: Example.svg by example
without inbetween spaces; a final new line can be forced manually, as shown, or by passing "br" as a second parameter to {{By}}.
