Hi Karen, Its seems that there are gotcha's no matter what direction we take. I will try to present the reasons behind the approach I am taking. I welcome your input and I will look at the code to see how your code works. It seems we need a set of tough cases that we need to be able to handle

I agree. That's why I want to get through this stage so that it is possible to concentrate on smaller self contained parts. For now I think these are the parts: - come up with our best line layout manager process - create a block/pagination process - document possible difficult cases, this

Hi Foppers, I've gone ahead and committed the major part of the Break Possibility approach to layout managers which I have developped. It leaves Keiron's new code intact (except for a couple of changes I needed to make to be able to subclass his LineLayoutManager). It's also not activated; to do

Hi Keiron, Here are a few comments on your new layoutmgr stuff (which is definitely more advanced than mine in most ways) : 1. I can't figure out how/where you manage space-start, space-end, border, padding, background etc (ie, any non-inherited properties) for non leaf node inline FO, ie:

Hi Developers, I just committed a bunch of changes to the line layout. I think it now has a reasonable basis to further develop the inline level areas and build line areas. If you run it over alignment.fo or instream.fo you will see that it mostly works for these examples. It does the spacing
