Hi,
Sorry for the delay in answering, but I couldn't
find my example. It turns out it is in a stylesheet I created for a
client, so I can't reproduce it here, but I can describe what I
did.
I merged the template named 'section.heading'
with the template that calls it, which starts with:
<xsl:template
match="section/title
|simplesect/title
|sect1/title
|sect2/title
|sect3/title
|sect4/title
|sect5/title"
mode="titlepage.mode"
priority="2">
Those are the final templates in the sequence of
section title templates.
Instead of creating in that template a variable
named 'title' whose content was the result of using mode="object.title.markup"
(which generates a combined number label and title), I created a fo:list-block
with a single fo:list-item child to format the label and title. The
section number goes in the fo:list-item-label, with the text-align property set
to "right", and the section title goes in fo:list-item-body, left-aligned.
On the list-block set the provisional-label-separation equal to the space you
want between the label and title, and set the provisional-distance-between
starts equal to the width of the area for the label (including the separation
space).
To generate the title, process the section in
mode="title.markup". To generate the label, process the section in
mode="label.markup". Since the above template's context element is the
title itself, to get the section parent you need to use a select=".." when you
apply templates in those modes.
Hope this is enough to get you
started.

Subject: [docbook-apps] section title
customization
Hello,
I would
like to customize section titles in more advanced way than by means of section.title.properties attributes. But in comparison to chapter title templates this seems to be a much more complicated task. I had a look at section.heading template, but I am not quite sure where to start.
My idea of customizing section titles is like this:
1
Title
Text of section
1.2 Title
Text of section
1.2.3 Title
Text of
section
I would
like to indent the body text and wrap section numer label and title into two separate fo:inline elements so that the number label is aligned to the right and the title starts at the beginning of body text indentation. The problem is I was not able to find out proper parts of template which generate this content. The structure of section templates is much different from chapter templates.
Has anyone tried such a bit more
complicated layout? I
would be very grateful for any response and experience.
Best regards
Pavel
