Hi
I have a three-column listing of phone numbers, and most of the
time, each column entry has only one line of text. Sometimes,
however, I have entries that look like this:
Text that spans
two lines ........... 99999 More text that
spans two lines
In case the format gets garbled, the number in the second column
should line up with the last line of text in the first column and
the first line of text in the third column. I've tried using
display-align and vertical-align, but I can't come up with a way
that works. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Can you post the FO-snippet you currently have?
I was thinking something like (only works in case you always have
three lines, and they're all in the same font-size):
<fo:table>
<fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(2)" />
<fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)" />
<fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(2)" />
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-cell starts-row="true" display-align="before">
<fo:block>Text that spans two lines ...... </fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell display-align="center">
<fo:block>99999</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell ends-row="true" display-align="after">
<fo:block>More text that spans two lines</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
Another way to achieve something similar, would be by means of
fo:block-containers (implemented) or fo:inline-containers
(unimplemented, but being worked on). The display-align properties do
not apply to fo:block or fo:inline. Maybe that's the reason why it
doesn't work for you (? remote guess)
HTH!
Cheers
