Re: Fixing the table height
hi,
For such question please ask on FOP-users list, FOP-dev list is for
internal dev.
That said, for minimum table height, you should set it on a table-row:
<fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="100%" border="solid red 1pt">
<fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/>
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-row block-progression-dimension.minimum="1cm">
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block/>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
Note that the message you get has nothing to do with table height; it
is related to column count;
On the resulting table grid, you have more cells thant expected.
You should have a look on the resulting XSL-FO to find the issue.
XSLT cannot help here.

Re: Fixing the table height
Posted by fop_ag <ni...@arisglobal.com>.
Hi,
I'm facing one more problem now.
I've put some content in table footer, but that footer data is not getting
printed at the end of report, instead the footer gets displayed immediately
after the table row data gets ended.
this is the xsl snippet
<fo:table table-layout="fixed" font-family="MS Gothic"
font-size="8pt">
<fo:table-column column-width="50mm"/>
<fo:table-column column-width="10mm"/>
<fo:table-column column-width="130mm"/>
<fo:table-header>
-- header rows
</fo:table-header>
<fo:table-footer>
--footer rows
</fo:table-footer>
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-row height="205mm">
.......
i'm observing this issue only with new fop 1.1 version, in older version it
was working fine.

That said, I'm not sure that fixed table height will be implemented in
short-term; the main question is: how distribute remaining vertical
space between rows.

Hi,
generally speaking, FOP prior 0.9x was widely buggy, regarding
block-progression-dimension (AKA height) related things. Current FOP
versions (since refactoring started with 0.9x) gives expected results.
In addition, older versions didn't fully respect XSL-FO
recommendations. So you'll get substantial benefits upgrading FOP 0.2x
to latest release (currently 1.1).

Hi,
I understand now what you want.
For that, you need to set row height.
This can be computed at XSLT stage:
<xsl:variable name="rowHeigh"
value="concat($availableHeight div count($myInputData/row), 'pt')"/>
...
<fo:row height="{$rowHeigh}">
...
</fo:row>

Re: Fixing the table height

IIUC, you want to distribute vertical space between some blocks?
If this is the case, you don't need fo:table anymore.
As suggested, use a fo:block-container having fixed height; then
inside use any king of block-objetcts, with "elastic spacing"; that
can be achieved playing with block-progression-dimension.minimum,
b-p-d.optimum, and b-p-d.maximum properties.
There is also a new extension comming with FOP next, allowing
alternate content, depending on remaining white-space.
Those 2 features (elastic spacing, alternate content) should meet your
wishes, perhaps.

Hi Luis,
Yes i wanted to have a table of fixed height, so that irrespective of no of
rows that is present within that table the height should be same.
If a table has capacity to accomadate 10 rows of data, with old fop if
there were only 5 rows existed table height would remain constant, but with
newer fop the table height is not constant, entire table looks like
collapsed.

Re: Fixing the table height
Posted by Luis Bernardo <lm...@gmail.com>.
The suggestion given was to keep the row height fixed. Obviously the
table height will be a multiple then of the number of rows.
You have not explained well what you are trying to achieve. You want a
fixed table height regardless of the number of rows and their height?
Can you provide a drawing of what you expect, or maybe a document
generated with the older FOP version you were using?

Hi Luis Bernardo,
Even having block-container inside the table cell didnt give the expected
result.. Still the height is growing depending on total no of rows in table.
Here is the xsl snippet which i used -
<fo:table-row height="3mm">
<fo:table-cell padding="1mm"
padding-top="0.5mm" padding-bottom="0.5mm">
<fo:block-container border="solid red 1pt"
block-progression-dimension.minimum="1cm"
inline-progression-dimension="100%">
<fo:block hyphenate="true"
wrap-option="wrap" white-space-collapse="false"
white-space-treatment="preserve" linefeed-treatment="preserve"
><xsl:value-of select="B.4.k.2.1"/></fo:block>
</fo:block-container>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>

I think the desired behavior is to have rows of fixed height. Having a
block-container with fixed height inside a table-cell should achieve the
desired result.

Hi,
FOP 1.1 only accepts value "auto" for fo:table@height.
Other values are replaced with 'auto'.
If you want a frame with a fixed (or minimal) height, then embed your
table in an fo:block-containter:
<fo:block-container
border="solid red 1pt"
block-progression-dimension.minimum="1cm"
inline-progression-dimension="100%"
>
<fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="100%">
...
</fo:table>
</fo:block-container>

Hmm,
rather than use an fo:table to get a fixed height area, you should use
an fo:block-container.
Note that with modern FOP, such elements are handled in a better way
than the (very old) FOP 0.2.x.
Then, you can insert an fo:table in your fo:block-container if you lay
out tabular data.

Hi,
The total no of columns defined is also proper,
I'm getting the error after moving the <fo:table-row> inside <xsl:for-each>.
If the <fo:table-row> is placed outside for-each tag i.e., after
<fo:table-body> the report gets generated without any error. But the table
height is not fixed in this case.
