Hi... Thanks for the reply.
Would the list approach you suggest work if I want to have a title, then a leader (....) then a page # in the list body? Wondering if there isn't a simpler way to just specify a minimum width for an inline area. Below is an example of what I want to output as a list of tables. 2-7 createTable Parameters ........................... 2-61 2-8 createView Parameters ............................ 2-62 2-9 createSynonym Parameters ......................... 2-63 2-10 createProc Parameters ............................ 2-64 2-11 createPackage Parameters.......................... 2-65 You can see that the table number at the left can have a varying width, but the area needs to be fixed width so the table names are all left-aligned. FOP 1.1 seems to ignore the width property for the <fo:inline> element.
