Which area rectangle does Block.height and Block.width specify?

[Finn Bock <bc...@worldonline.dk>]

Hi,

I was looking at some of the border issues and would like to ask for a 
little clarification of which of area rectangle that is described by 
Block.getHeight and Block.getWidth.

    http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xsl-20011015/slice4.html#area-geo

 From looking at the layout managers it seems to specify the content 
rectangle but the border code in PDFRendere interprets the values as the 
allocation rectangle.

I would guess that that values should be the size of content rectangle.

regards,
finn

On a second peek into
fop.area.Block
fop.area.BlockParent
fop.area.Area
fop.layoutmgr.BlockLayoutManager

Block.setWidth is fed the IPD of the parent Area in BlockLayoutManager.java,
and the IPD is indeed defined as <q>the inline-progression-dimension of the
*content* rectangle for each area generated by this formatting object</q>[1]

But this would be the content rectangle of the *parent* area, hence the
confusion.

Anyone?

Cheers,

Andreas

Having had a first look, I wouldn't be too sure... If you want to draw a
border, you want it to take into account the padding (if present), no? At
the time the PDFRenderer renders the borders it should draw these along the
large-allocation-rectangle, not the content rectangle. So, I would
definitely go check if Block.getHeight and Block.getWidth already take into
account the specified or inherited padding...

Perhaps someone else can clarify this further?

Cheers,

Andreas
