A procedure and its steps are processed as a
fo:list-block and fo:list-items. So any note in a step is wrapped in an
fo:list-body element. It appears that FOP and Antenna House do not
respect the space-after of the last item inside the
fo:list-body. It works in XEP. I think it should respect that
space-after, since a list-item is a normal block area, not a reference area like
a table cell.

Ooops, small correction: not
the nongraphical admonitions title, the nongraphical admonition block
itself…

[docbook-apps] Admonition spacing
Hi again…
I have customized the nongraphical admonitions title with
space-before and space-after attributes:
<fo:block
space-before.minimum="2.2em"
space-before.optimum="2.5em"
space-before.maximum="2.7em"
space-after.minimum="2.2em"
space-after.optimum="2.5em"
space-after.maximum="2.7em”
…
This spacing appears to come out perfectly when the
admonition occurs between ordinary paragraphs within a section. However, when
they are within a step element within a procedure element, there is very
little space after, just the ordinary space that occurs between one step and
the next.
How come this doesn’t work? Does the space between steps
override any space-after settings of the last object within the step
element?
Thanks…
