Clearout Shortcode

Displays a gap of spacing within the content. Is used for the purposes of getting content to line up properly when needed.

The difference between the clear shortcode and the clearout shortcode is that [clear] will bring the next markup to a new line whereas [clearout] will bring the markup to a newline and drop it ~20 pixels down producing a gap. (The actual spacing of [clearout] might be slightly different for different themes) So you'll want to use [clearout] if you need some extra spacing between your previous line and next line.

The also similar newline shortcode will bring you to the next line much like the clear shortcode will, but it may not necessarily clear floated elements. The newline shortcode essentially produces a <br /> HTML tag.
