RE: [docbook-apps] Re: [docbook] Floats -> SideBar does not work in left or right float

["David Cramer (Tech Pubs)" <dcramer@motive.com>]

Speaking of sidebars...using XEP 4.6, if I have a sidebar that would
extend past a page break, the sidebar disappears leaving a page
break/lots of empty space. I tried adding <xsl:attribute
name="keep-together.within-column">auto</xsl:attribute> to
sidebar.properties, but it didn't help. Is this a known limitation or is
there something I can do to work around it? 

Thanks,
David
