Notes on row spanning and collapsing border model Change Log: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ == Notes on row spanning == -'''''TBD''''' +Layout for a cell spanning in row direction has to be started on the first row it occupies. The idea to defer layout to the last row occupied by a cell won't work since in the mean-time a page might be full and some of the content may already be needed on that page. That means that for collapsing border model the start and end borders for each grid unit have to be determined prior to starting layout (getNextBreakPoss) in the first row occupied by a cell. Each grid unit may have its own border and the widest of the border segments determines the left and right indent for the content rect. This makes it necessary to do a prefetching of rows in the body LM. For each of the prefetched rows the grid units are set up and the start and end border segments of each grid unit determined. The before and after border segments are later determined (and sometimes redetermined) during layout because these borders may depend on break decisions. == Illustrations == --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
