# MarkupAttribute

Struct in [Yarn.Markup](/3.1/api/csharp/yarn.markup.md)

Inherits from `System.ValueType`

## Summary

Represents a range of text in a marked-up string.

```csharp
public struct MarkupAttribute

## Remarks

You do not create instances of this struct yourself. It is created by objects that can parse markup, such as [LineParser](/3.1/api/csharp/yarn.markup/yarn.markup.lineparser.md) .
