Subject:Overly complicated formatting in Report XSL Author:David Bartell Date:25 Feb 2019 02:31 PM
XSL code for a simple text string, “Terms/Deferred Terms of Sale” became overly complicated in the resultant XSL generated from the Report feature. I’ve seen the bolding change letter to letter when working in the canvas, and I go back to highlight the string and click the bold icon. It appears to fix it visually in the canvas, preview, and PDF, but looking at the XSL, the inefficiency is apparent:
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-family="Times New Roman" font-size="12pt" font-weight="bold">
<xsl:text>Terms/Deferred Te</xsl:text>
</fo:inline>
<fo:inline font-family="Times New Roman" font-size="12pt" font-weight="bold" color="#000000" background-color="#FFFFFF">
<xsl:text>rms o</xsl:text>
</fo:inline>
<fo:inline font-family="Times New Roman" font-size="12pt" font-weight="bold">
<xsl:text>f S</xsl:text>
</fo:inline>
<fo:inline font-family="Times New Roman" font-size="12pt" font-weight="bold" background-color="#FFFFFF">
<xsl:text>ale</xsl:text>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
