Re: [docbook-apps] Setting book toc.indent.width for sect1

[Xmplar <info@xmplar.biz>]

Problem solved. I realized that when I added parts to a book, the toc.indent.width value was doubled for the section entries - it's cumulative. I found the right template that affects the toc.indent.width for chapters, and needed to customize it for books both with and without parts. Here is my code (with a new variable "toc.indent.width.sections" expressed in points, which provides left margin for all section, sect1, etc... titles):

<xsl:template match="d:preface|d:chapter|d:appendix|d:article"
    mode="toc">
    <xsl:param name="toc-context" select="."/>
   
   ...
   
    <xsl:if test="$toc.section.depth > 0
      and $toc.max.depth > $depth.from.context
      and $nodes">
      <!--reset toc width for sections (flush left margin): 13/10/12-->
      <xsl:choose>
        <!--for book with parts: OK 14/10/12-->
        <xsl:when test="parent::d:part">
          <fo:block id="toc.{$cid}.{$id}" margin-left="-{$toc.indent.width}pt+{$toc.indent.width.sections}pt">
            <!--<xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">
          <xsl:call-template name="set.toc.indent"/>
        </xsl:attribute>-->
           
            <xsl:apply-templates select="$nodes" mode="toc">
              <xsl:with-param name="toc-context" select="$toc-context"/>
            </xsl:apply-templates>
          </fo:block>
        </xsl:when>
        <!--for book with no parts: OK 14/10/12-->
        <xsl:otherwise>
          <fo:block id="toc.{$cid}.{$id}" margin-left="{$toc.indent.width.sections}pt">
            <!--<xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">
          <xsl:call-template name="set.toc.indent"/>
        </xsl:attribute>-->
           
            <xsl:apply-templates select="$nodes" mode="toc">
              <xsl:with-param name="toc-context" select="$toc-context"/>
            </xsl:apply-templates>
          </fo:block>   
        </xsl:otherwise>
      </xsl:choose>
    </xsl:if>
  </xsl:template>

In a book toc, I need to set the first-level sections listed under each chapter against the left margin of the toc.

The screenshot showing the sections listed under Chapter 2 is what I’m trying to achieve with a customization of toc.indent.width (I think that’s what I need anyway).

I used a single toc.indent.width value (29pt), and in the FO I changed the margin-left for the fo:block that has a chapter id number, to give it a negative value for toc.indent.width. The fo code is:

<fo:block id="toc.d0e1.chap2" margin-left="-29pt">
<fo:basic-link internal-destination="sec2.1">
<fo:list-block
                provisional-label-separation="1mm" provisional-distance-between-starts="10mm" >
                <fo:list-item>
                  <fo:list-item-label end-indent="label-end()">
                    <fo:block

Setting the value of -29pt once for each chapter will set the left margin correctly for all section entries listed in each chapter.

But how do I apply that margin-left value in the stylesheets? I tried modifying the relevant code in the  template <xsl:template match="d:book|d:setindex" mode="toc">.

The fo:block in that template seems obvious, but that oddly didn’t apply the left-margin to the FO:

<fo:block id="toc.{$cid}.{$id}" margin-left=”-29pt”>
        <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">
          <xsl:call-template name="set.toc.indent"/>
        </xsl:attribute>

Thanks in advance!
