The default dimensions are 8px x 17px. The argument changes the dimensions. If it's a single value (e.g. "20px"), that determines the height. If you have a pair of arguments, the first is width and the second is height.</p></li><li><p>row: Display a list of components horizontally. The argument is an array of components in the tab layout format.</p></li><li><p>column: Display a list of components vertically. The argument is an array of components in the tab layout format.

They can be used just like other components, but are typically part of another component.</p><ul><li><p>upgrade, milestone, chall, buyable, clickable, achievement: An individual upgrade, challenge, etc. The argument is the id. This can be used if you want to have upgrades split up across multiple subtabs, for example.</p></li><li><p>respec-button, master-button: The respec and master buttons for buyables and clickables, respectively.</p></li><li><p>sell-one, sell-all: The "sell one" and "sell all" for buyables, respectively.
