Table is a block level element. Starting a table creates a new block
area, which closes any line you was filling.
The only way to put several tables side-by-side in a ordinary line is
to wrap each in a fo:inline-container. Unfortunately, FOP 0.20.5
doesn't implement inline containers. The only alternative is to nest
the tables in a bigger table spanning the page width.
Is there a way to tweak this behaviour without using a grand table? So for
example when the three tables are too big, a newline will be automatically
be inserted like:
tabletable
table
If this could be possible, I would have exactly what I need..
Impossible or at least very complicated with FOP 0.20.5.
I suggest preprocessing the images so that the caption is part of
the bitmap.

external-graphic and caption

2004-02-26 Thread Wouter de Vaal



Hi,

Is it possible to add a caption to an 
external-graphic without putting it in a table?

My goal is to have multiple graphics within a block 
so they will be put on one line
untill there is no more space and then the next 
will be shown on the next line..

Regards,
Wouter

It depends on what you mean by add a caption to an external-graphic.

You can mix text and graphics in one line. Gotchas:
- You can't control vertical alignment well. Graphics alignment
 is by default top, and can only be adjusted with vertical-align
 sub and super
- If the graphics is higher than the line height, it will overlap
 subsequent lines. FOP 0.20.5 is not able to automatically adjust
 line height, it will always use the line height specified on the
 block or implicitely derived from the font size in effect on the
 block.
