That’s ‘Voilà’ :-P Clever. The empty block generates a box of 0 length, which should provide that too-short node I was talking about in my previous answer (didn’t re-run a debug session to check though...). > And then I decided to push my luck and see what happens, when I play with > keeps... > > <fo:block > > <fo:inline>Table headline</fo:inline> > </fo:block> > <fo:block span="all" background-color="blue" > keep-with-next.within-page="always" keep-with-previous.within-page="always" /> > <fo:block span="all" background-color="red"> Here's my > table...</fo:block> > > I'm not quite sure what I expected in this case, Most likely the table being > moved back to the first page, less likely (but more preferable in my case) > the table and the headline on the second page.

That’s the latter: the table and the headline should both be moved to the second page, since the table is unbreakable and doesn’t fit on the first one. > What I got was: The same picture as before.

Still no change when adding a span="all" to the headline: > > <fo:block span="all" > > <fo:inline>Table headline</fo:inline> > </fo:block> > <fo:block span="all" background-color="blue" > keep-with-next.within-page="always" keep-with-previous.within-page="always" /> > <fo:block span="all" background-color="red"> Here's my > table...</fo:block> You’re hitting the same bug again. Move the empty block before the headline and that should work fine. Of course, if in your real-life document you must actually keep the last block of the multi-column part with the spanning table, then you’re stuck I’m afraid. > Only when I added a span to the headline AND a new spanning block before the > headline, I got what I wanted, headline and table on a new page: > > <fo:block span="all" /> > <fo:block span="all" > > <fo:inline>Table headline</fo:inline> > </fo:block> > <fo:block span="all" background-color="blue" > keep-with-next.within-page="always" keep-with-previous.within-page="always" /> > <fo:block span="all" background-color="red"> Here's my > table...</fo:block> The second empty block shouldn’t be necessary.

A thing I’m not sure of is if keeps between a multi-column part and a span have been implemented at all... <snip/> HTH, Vincent --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
