I need to use fo:leader for create a table with requests and responses like this:
However the final result is like that:
My problem is when the left block have 2 lines and the right block have 2 lines both of them align on top. I need to align the left block on top and the right block on bottom.
Is that possible?
Follow the atual code:
<fo:inline-container vertical-align="top" inline-progression-dimension="60%">
<fo:block start-indent="0.5em" text-indent="-0.5em" text-align-last="justify" margin-right="0.3cm"<xsl:value-of select="challenge/para|limitdesc/para|sopitem/para"/>
<fo:leader leader-pattern="dots"/</fo:block>
</fo:inline-container>
<fo:inline-container relative-position="relative" vertical-align="bottom" display-align="after" inline-progression-dimension="40%">
<fo:block start-indent="0.5em" text-indent="-0.5em" display-align="after"><xsl:value-of select="response/para|limitvalue/para|limittext/para|act/para"/></fo:block>
</fo:inline-container>
I tried using AH Formatter and found two solutions.
[1] Use baseline-shift
for the latter fo:inline-container
<fo:block>
<fo:inline-container vertical-align="top" inline-progression-dimension="60%">
<fo:block start-indent="0.5em" text-indent="-0.5em" text-align-last="justify">
[1] Text here text here text here text here text here text here text here
<fo:leader leader-pattern="dots"/></fo:block></fo:inline-container><fo:inline-container baseline-shift="-1.44em" inline-progression-dimension="40%">
<fo:block start-indent="0.5em" text-indent="-0.5em" display-align="after">
Continued text here text here text here text here
</fo:block>
</fo:inline-container>
</fo:block>
I specifies `baseline-shift="-1.44em". (This depends the used font) This method works only when the first line count equals 2.
[2] Use fo:table
instead of fo:inline-container
<fo:table width="100%">
<fo:table-column column-number="1" column-width="60%"/>
<fo:table-column column-number="2" column-width="40%"/>
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block start-indent="0.5em" text-indent="-0.5em" text-align-last="justify">
[2] Text here text here text here text here text here text here text here
<fo:leader leader-pattern="dots"/></fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell/>
</fo:table-row>
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell/>
<fo:table-cell padding-before="-1.32em">
<fo:block start-indent="0.5em" text-indent="-0.5em" display-align="after">
Continued text here text here text here text here
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
This method does not depend the text lines in the first fo:table-cell
.
The two formatting result using AH Formatter GUI:
My Formatter version is 6.4. But the result will be the same.
