Re: [docbook-apps] Custom colors for admonitions

[DeanNelson@aol.com]

Brett,

The simple answer is to add

 <xsl:attribute name="border">1pt solid blue</xsl:attribute>
or a variation of it.

 

However, I have found that you will need to also deal with the title box as well or it will look a bit weird. So below you will see my admonition section that you should be able to modify to suit your needs.

 

Regards

Dean Nelson

Hi,

I'd like to give each admonition a border of its own color. I found a
question where using a "choose" block was suggested when customizing
the attribute-set for "graphical.admonition.properties". I've tried
that, and while I can change the attributes in the attribute-set, my
tests in the "choose" block never match any admonitions. They all get
the value given in the "otherwise" block. Is there something I should
be using instead of test="self::d:warning", or have I screwed up
somewhere else?

I'm using DocBook 5.0, libxslt-1.1.26.win32, fop-1.1 on Windows Vista
64 bit Ultimate.


Here's testbook.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<article xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" version="5.0">
    <title>A Small Example</title>

    <section>
        <para>If everything goes as planned, the warning below will
have a red line above and below it, and the note will have blue lines.
If not, they'll both have black lines.</para>

        <warning>
            <para>This is a warning!</para>
        </warning>

        <note>
            <para>This is just a note.</para>
        </note>

        <para>Ok, black lines it is.</para>
    </section>
</article>


Here's testStylesheet.xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
xmlns:d="http://docbook/org/ns/docbook" version="1.0">
    <xsl:import href=""/>

    <xsl:param name="paper.type">A4</xsl:param>

    <!-- customise admonitions -->
    <xsl:param name="admon.graphics" select="1"/>
    <xsl:param name="admon.graphics.path">images/</xsl:param>
    <xsl:param name="admon.graphics.extension">.png</xsl:param>

    <xsl:attribute-set name="graphical.admonition.properties">
        <xsl:attribute name="border-color">
            <xsl:choose>
                <xsl:when test="self::d:warning">red</xsl:when>
                <xsl:when test="self::d:note">blue</xsl:when>
                <xsl:otherwise>black</xsl:otherwise>
            </xsl:choose>
        </xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:attribute name="border-top">1pt solid</xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:attribute name="border-bottom">1pt solid</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:attribute-set>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I'm currently writing in Notepad++ and building using a .bat file:

D:\sdk\docbook\libxslt-1.1.26.win32\bin\xsltproc.exe --output
testbook.fo testStylesheet.xsl testbook.xml

D:\sdk\docbook\fop-1.1\fop.bat -fo testbook.fo -pdf testbook.pdf


I'm new to DocBook, so I'm probably making a stupid mistake somewhere.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Brett
