Re: [docbook-apps] Wide verbatim shading overflowing into right margin in PDF
Thanks Bob,

I see now that it's documented, http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/1.76.1/doc/fo/monospace.verbatim.font.width.html, and also that I can reach a sort of compromise with this. Maybe forcing width, if specified, to some known value that will force alignment with the right margin.

If writers want the stylesheets to treat wide programlisting elements like wide tables, in the style of pgwide="1", how should they go about it?

There doesn't seem to be a pgwide attribute on programlisting. Even in the current docs <?dbfo pgwide?> looks like it applies only to equation and example.

Regards,

Mark

Hi Mark,

That shading is the background color of the fo:block-container 
that contains a programlisting with width.  The width of the 
block-container is computed as follows:

 

@width * $monospace.verbatim.font.width

 

where $monospace.verbatim.font.width is one of the DocBook 
parameters, whose default value is 0.60em. You can adjust either the width or 
the param to get a narrower box.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Wide verbatim shading overflowing into right 
margin in PDF

Hello, 

What is the correct way to avoid wide verbatim shading from overflowing 
into the right margin in PDF?

In the attached .png, the "CVS program listing" example has width="92". I'd 
like to stop the shading at the right margin, just as it starts at the left. 
Instead the shading runs to the right edge of the page.

The build uses the v1.76.1 stylesheets with the following 
customization:

  <xsl:param name="shade.verbatim" select="1"/>
  
<xsl:attribute-set name="shade.verbatim.style">
  
 <xsl:attribute 
name="background-color">#d4d4d4</xsl:attribute>
  
 <xsl:attribute name="border">0.5pt dashed 
#626d75</xsl:attribute>
   <xsl:attribute 
name="padding">3pt</xsl:attribute>
   <xsl:attribute 
name="wrap-option">no-wrap</xsl:attribute>
  
 <xsl:attribute 
name="font-size">0.75em</xsl:attribute>
  
</xsl:attribute-set>

Thanks for your advice. Regards,

Mark
