Sorry if I misrepresented my desire, or am misinterpeting your reply... As an example for what I was hoping to do: I want to generate a 2 page document. I have 5 pieces of content I want to be in this document, ContentA-ContentE. I want to make this a 2 column document (easy). On the first page, I will have Column 1 have ContentA which has a relatively well established size and ContentB which is quite variable. The second column will only have ContentC. For ContentB, I want it to only take up 1/2 the column length (or a fixed size).
The second page will have ContentD, followed by any overflow from ContentB, followed by ContentE. So, in general, I was looking for a way to limit the size of some content block and have anything which exceeds the size continue in another non-consecutive area. Kinda like linking together 2 display regions and fixing the size. --- Chris Bowditch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >From: Scott MacKay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > >Hello, > > Just starting with FOP, I was curious if there > was > >any way to split text into 2 different areas. > Based > >on area constraints, I would want the text to flow > >from 1 defined area to the next. > > Create a simple page master for the first page with > column-count="2" on > fo:region-body > > Create another simple page master without > column-count attribute on the > fo:region-body for pages that dont need multi-column > newspaper style layout. > > _________________________________________________________________ > Hotmail messages direct to your mobile phone > http://www.msn.co.uk/msnmobile > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
