AW: [docbook-apps] AW: Graphical admonition in FO: Alignment?

["Kallauch, Benjamin (EEIN)" <benjamin.kallauch2@volkswagen.de>]

Hi Bob

Exactly, just making the border of the block visible (red line) will change the inner block behavior:
- With the visible border, I assume the inner block is using the standard top spacing before the preceding content (equivalent to the spacing between two para elements in normal content).
- Without the border there is no spacing before.

To be more precise in my requirement: The baseline oft the first line should be a good reference. This line should be aligned whether the middle of the graphic or with its bottom line. It depends on what is looking best at the end.

I am using FOP 1.1.

regards,
Ben

Hi,
The way I interpret your examples is that just adding the red border to 
the block in the list-item-body changes the alignment of the 
list-item-label.  Is that right?  That should not happen.   What FO 
processor are you using?

Can you be a bit more precise on your need: "What I need is to align the 
list body text with the middle of the graphic, not the top." The "middle 
of the graphic" is a precise point, but the text can span multiple 
lines.  Do you mean the baseline of the first line of the body?
