PROBLEM WITH STEP

[Le Basque]

Hi,

From step 10 there is more space between the point and the text
Example :

Code: Select all

1. Goto x

2. fdfdfdf

3. gggggg

...

10.fffdfdfd

where can I change the space between the step number and the text ?

Thank you

Hello,

From the look of the sample I think your CSS uses counters for the the list numbering. The counter is probably put on a BEFORE pseudo element. In this case you can use the width property to impose a fixed width so that all items have the text aligned. Here is a sample from the DITA CSS, modified to impose a fixed with for the counter part:

Code: Select all

*[class~="topic/ol"] > *[class~="topic/li"]:before {

    content: counters(item-count, ".", decimal) ". ";

    width:2em;

    font-weight:bold;

}

There
Best regards,

CSS also works for PDF publication?

Hi,

I had the impression that your question was related to the author mode in Oxygen. I'm sorry for the confusion... The solution I've described above was intended for the Oxygen Author mode. Unfortunately I don't have that much experience with XSLT-FO so I don't know what advice to give you. Maybe it will help to redirect this question to a FO specific discussion list.

Best regards,
Alex

Why not try wrapping your fo:list-item within an fo:list-block?

Then you can use the following fo:list-block attributes:

provisional-distance-between-starts
provisional-label-separation
start-indent

Try different values until you get the desired result.

Starting with something this this:

Code: Select all

  <fo:list-block provisional-distance-between-starts="10mm"

                 provisional-label-separation="10mm"

                 start-indent="5mm">





  </fo:list-block>
