FOP Devs,
After Glen's recent success with space-before on Blocks in 1.0 layout, I
decided to have a look at padding-left.
Changing the IPD in response to padding in the BlockLayoutManager is simple
enough. The padding Traits are already set on Area by the LM. However, the
resulting PDF did not having padding. A quick look at PDFRenderer.java shows
it never looks at Trait.PADDING_BEFORE. Probably because padding on blocks
was never implemented in 0.20.x.
I did have a quick go at this by inserting the following in
handleBlockTraits:
currentIPPosition=+block.getTraitAsInteger(Trait.PADDING_BEFORE);
However, this didnt do the trick. Ive run out of time until Monday. In the
meatime, any thoughts would be appreciated.
Chris
