RE: [docbook-apps] Admonition spacing

Ooops, small correction: not the nongraphical admonitions title, the nongraphical admonition block itself…

Hi again…

 

I have customized the nongraphical admonitions title with space-before and space-after attributes:

 

<fo:block            

          space-before.minimum="2.2em"

          space-before.optimum="2.5em"

          space-before.maximum="2.7em"

          space-after.minimum="2.2em"

          space-after.optimum="2.5em"

          space-after.maximum="2.7em”

          …

 

 

 

This spacing appears to come out perfectly when the admonition occurs between ordinary paragraphs within a section. However, when they are within a step element within a procedure element, there is very little space after, just the ordinary space that occurs between one step and the next.

 

How come this doesn’t work? Does the space between steps override any space-after settings of the last object within the step element?

 

Thanks…

Alan
