Hi JPee, 

No, you won't easily get the height of a block, since that information is only 
available, after the various breaking and layouting algorithms of fop are 
finished. But there shouldn't be anything wrong with keep-with-next / 
keep-with-previous. Helped me a lot.

Betreff: get position of block


Hi,

I'm working with FOP embedded in a CMS for generating PDFs. I have the 
following problem.

In my PDF there are texts, in the texts there are headers, paragraphs, bold and 
italic parts. In my project I defined patterns how these things are mapped to 
fop. Sometimes it happens that there is a Header in the last lines of a page. 
The structure of the generated fop sourcecode is like.

<fo:block headerattributes>headertext</fo:block> (1 time) <fo:block 
normaltextattr.>text</fo:block> (n times)

And that iterates several times. 

Is there a possibilty to get the position out of a block so i could define a 
rule, if the block.height is higher than 200mm page-break-before? Or is there a 
possibility to keep the block with the headerattributes together with the next 
line, which is used by another block? In my case i don't have the choice to put 
a block around the headertext and the normal text, to use the 
keep-together.within-page attribute. 

Greetings,

JPee
