Glenn BrandSubject: Extra block/CR generated

I have a conditional field in the report attached. It always includes an extra carriage return causing the cell to be twice as high resulting in the report having extra lines instead of each repeating item being in a straight line.

Hi Glenn,
can you explain better the behavior you are seeing? When I preview the report, or run the generated XSLT stylesheet, I don't see extra carriage returns.

Thanks,
Alberto

You can see the issues in the Apache FOP generated PDF. The image you sent has it where the CLAIM.COMMENT is located. Does that help.
I am really stumped here.
I am thinking that this may be caused by Apache 0.94. Apache 0.20 that Stylus Studio uses behaves properly. For now I think we will have to go with 0.20.

Alberto,

This is what Stylus Studio is generating a block within a block. This gets converted into 2 lines by Apache 0.94. If I look at the report it actually shows an extra line feed.

<fo:table-cell border-style="none" border-width="0pt" border-color="transparent" background-repeat="repeat" display-align="center">
<fo:block>
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-family="Arial" font-size="9pt">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="CLAIMS.CNUMBER=CLAIMS.NCNUMBER">
<fo:block>
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-family="Arial" font-size="8pt">
<xsl:value-of select="CLAIMS.COMMENT"/>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
</fo:block>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<fo:block text-align="left">
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-family="Arial" font-size="9pt">    
<xsl:value-of select="CLAIMS.COMMENT"/>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
</fo:block>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="not(CLAIMS.BFEE=&quot;&quot;)">
<fo:block/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<fo:block>
<fo:block>Modifiers:
<xsl:value-of select="CLAIMS.BFEE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="CLAIMS.PFEE"/>
</fo:block>
</fo:block>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>

Hi Glenn,
this looks like a limitation of Apache FOP 0.94 (both FOP 0.2 and RenderX don't show the same layout); what makes it create a different table cell is not the nested fo:block, but the two fo:inline used to set the font size.
As a workaround you can specify the height of each table row, by clicking on the repeater glyph, activating the Row page in the property window and specifying 9 as the font size.

Hope this helps,
Alberto

I agree. I stumbled on this myself. Thank you for the confirmation.
