Re: svn commit: r280872 - in /xmlgraphics/fop/trunk/test/layoutengine: disabled-testcases.txt testcases/block_padding_2.xml

2005-09-17 Thread Simon Pepping
I see my error; I did not realize the influence of the retained
padding.

This situation is very similar to tables with their headers and
footers. There needs to be a penalty equal to the widths of the
padding-after and padding-before below each block. A block equal to
the widths of the padding-after and padding-before comes at the end of
the block.

I do not have time to look up the details, as I am going away
for a few days.

Regards, Simon

  The element list seems OK to me. The first page also seems OK to

 I didn't even look at the area tree, but you're right vpos is a bit
 strange, though I get 162000, not 190800. :-) But I wouldn't put too
 much weight on the vpos attribute since it simply writes out the
 currentBPPosition. I'm going to investigate that a little more. I
 believe we can't start talking about something wrong in the area part if
 the element list is wrong in the first place. Both parts need to be
 synchronized. That's why it's important not only to test the area tree
 but also the element lists. Otherwise, you get strange line or page
 breaking decisions and you don't know why.
 
 Thanks for the feedback!
 
 I realized with this bug that I need to take borders and padding from
 parent LMs into account when I'm trying to create the right element
 lists for spaces. Looks like we need a stack on the LayoutContext for
 non-conditional borders and paddings. ATM I believe we will end up
 extending the use of unresolved list elements which get resolved to
 normal Knuth elements prior to breaking. Otherwise, the code gets too
 complicated if the complex break possibilities (like
 pen-glue-box-PEN-glue) are becoming more common. I will write something
 up on the Wiki about that.
 
   BTW, if you run this test, the output looks good, but add two or three
   additional lines and you'll see the problem in the output, too.

 Ouch. The penalties are completely wrong if a higher-level block defines 
 non-conditional padding.
