You're right !!
I've tried with the padding-bottom attribute, and
it does work, but it may not fit your needs...
just try this :
<fo:block padding-bottom="15cm"
background-color="silver">
friendly,
Guillaume

Hi Guillaume
I have tried using just the height attribute in
the block e.g.
<?xml version="1.0"?> <fo:root
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"> <fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master
master-name="A4" page-height="29.7cm" page-width="21cm" margin-top="1cm"
margin-bottom="1cm" margin-left="2cm"
margin-right="2cm"> <fo:region-body
margin-top="1.5cm"
margin-bottom="2cm"/> <fo:region-before
extent="1.5cm"/> <fo:region-after
extent="2cm"/> </fo:simple-page-master> </fo:layout-master-set> <fo:page-sequence
master-name="A4"
initial-page-number="1"> <fo:static-content
flow-name="xsl-region-before"> </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content
flow-name="xsl-region-after"> </fo:static-content> <fo:flow
flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <fo:block>Before
Block</fo:block> <fo:block height="15cm"
background-color="silver">This is the block
contents</fo:block> <fo:block>After
Block</fo:block> <fo:block
id="end-of-doc"/> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </fo:root>
I would expect to see a pretty large middle block with a grey background
but this central block just fits around the enclosed text. (See attached
PDF file)
I am sure that I must be doing something obvoiusly wrong but I can't see
it.
p.s. I am using FOP 0.18.1
Any pointers will be very useful.
Thanks Andy

why don't you simply specify the 'height'
attribute ?

Subject: newbie - Minimum Block
Heights
Hi
I am new to FOP and have hit a stumbling
block pretty quickly. I need to be able to set the minimum heigh of
a block in the docuement and from the documentation though that this could
be acheived using the following entries in the FO file:
<block min-height="2cm">Block
Contents</block>
However I get the following warning when I
attempt to transform this into a PDF:
"WARNING: property 'min-height'
ignored"
What am I doing wrong here ?
Thanks
Andy
