• :width:

• :height:

When using markers, styles come before locations. For numerous markers of the same style,

.. static-map:: The queens larder
        :markers: color:blue The+British+Museum Lamb+Bar

For markers of different styles, these should be separated with a &:

.. static-map:: The queens larder
        :markers: color:blue label:A The+British+Museum & color:red label:B Lamb+Bar

Note that marker locations use + to seprate words, not spaces.
