Hi everybody,

I'm just learning, since 3 months, to use docbook and to write the stylesheets. Now I have this problem: in the orderedlist of the FO the distance from the listitem to the text is not dynamic and if the listitem number (dot included) takes more space because it's made by 2 or more numbers (eg. 16. instead of 1.) it enters in the text space and "mixes" with it, in other words overwrites the text. I'm not able to find a property of the list block to arrange this problem, or (more probably) I'm using it in a wrong way.

I tried in these ways, but without success:

/1)/
<xsl:attribute-set name="list.block.spacing">
        <xsl:attribute name="space-after">20px</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

/2)/
<!--xsl:attribute-set name="list.item.label">
        <xsl:attribute name="margin-right">20</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set-->

/3)//(I've found this one in a website)/
<xsl:attribute-set name="list.label.spacing">
        <xsl:attribute name="right">
            <xsl:choose>
                <xsl:when test="self::orderedlist">2em</xsl:when>
                <xsl:otherwise>0pt</xsl:otherwise>
            </xsl:choose>
        </xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set-->

I even tried with different properties of each attribute-set...
Have you ever had this problem? Do you have any suggestion?

Matteo
