Bob,
Thanks so much for helping to follow the toc processing logic between
stylesheets. I eventually solved the problem by looking at the fo:
output and tracing back where a particular fo:block places the toc id
number. It is in template ‘component.toc’, so I specified space-before…
attributes:
…
<xsl:iftest="$nodes">
<fo:blockid="toc...{$id}"
space-before.minimum="0pt"
space-before.optimum="0pt"
space-before.maximum="0pt"
xsl:use-attribute-sets="toc.margin.properties">
…

Hi Dave,
The template with match="d:chapter" in fo/comonent.xsl calls the
template named 'component.toc', which resides in fo/autotoc.xsl. In
the component.toc template, the main fo:block has
xsl:use-attribute-sets="toc.margin.properties". That attribute-set is
in fo/param.xsl and includes space-before properties.
I see that you also include a toc title, so the component.toc template
also calls the template named 'table.of.contents.titlepage'. That
template is part of the titlepage spec system based on processing the
titlepage.templates.xml specification file into a customized titlepage
module titlepage.templates.xsl. If you look in
titlepage.templates.xml, you will find:
<t:titlepage t:element="table.of.contents" ...>
Even though 'table.of.contents' is not an element, is it treated as a
fake element in the titlepage system. In that specification,the
<title> element has space-before properties. That would be a second
source of space above your toc.

*Subject:* [docbook-apps] Removing blank space in chapter TOC
I am generating chapter tocs with a two-column layout, and the toc
generates with a space before the toc title (attached screenshot).
I have tried to modify both
<xsl:templatematch="d:preface|d:chapter|d:appendix|d:article"
mode="toc"> and <xsl:templatename="division.toc"> by applying
margin-top to the relevant blocks (e.g. <fo:block id
="toc.{$cid}.{$id}"> ), and even trying to use fo:inline instead
of fo:block (based on the assumption that fo:block generates a
one-line space). I thought the fo:block that contains the toc is
somehow adding something like a ‘space-before’ property (or to
that effect) before the first content (which is the title). I’ve
experimented by applying negative margin-top and padding-top
attributes to no avail. I’d like some guidance please on what I
need to modify.
Thanks,
Dave Gardiner
