Hi, I'm new to this list, so I'd like to say hello to everybody here, first.
I am confused about the use of negative <length> values with the 'background-position-horizontal' and 'background-position-vertical' attributes. In my current use-case, FOP just ignores these negative values. I am not quite sure if this behavior is correct or this is a bug. The XSL 1.1 (http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#background-position-horizontal"; recommendation does not mention negative values. But it declares this as "A Property Derived from a CSS2 Property". The CSS2 specification (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/colors.html#background-properties) says for the 'background-position' property that "Negative positions are allowed", without any further clarifications. Thus, I am not quite sure, how this translates to XSL-FO. I am running the following system: * fop-0.94-bin-jdk1.4.tar.gz * Sun java version 1.6.0_03 * Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon * linux 2.6.22-14-generic (i686) I am using the properties in the following context: <fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";> <fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master master-name="PageMaster" page-height="8.5in" page-width="11in" margin-top="0" margin-left="0" margin-right="0" margin-bottom="0"> <fo:region-body column-count="2" column-gap="20mm" border-style="none" border-width="thin" margin-top="16mm" margin-left="16mm" margin-right="16mm" margin-bottom="16mm" background-image="url('layout.svg')" background-position-horizontal="-16mm" background-position-vertical="-16mm" /> [etc] BTW: What I am trying to do, is to add some page-decorations that are larger than my region-body. Sadly, 'simple-page-master' does not accept background properties. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
