I have a table with svg arrows that indicate the next block of a question. The problem is when the table break in the middle of the page and the arrow stop in same point. I need that the table row go to the page footer.
Is that possible?
Thanks

Table cells generally take as much space as they need but no more, so they generally don't extend to the bottom of the page when the table breaks over a page.
You may be able to do things with change-bars to put a change-bar down the side and have a second change-bar with the graphic for the arrowhead.
You may be able to have a right-hand column that contains a graphic for a page-height arrow and rely on
overflow
to truncate the graphic to the right height. You'd have to work withmax-height
orblock-progression-dimension.maximum
to get the table cell to extend to the bottom of the page. The right-angle bend in the arrow could be difficult, but you might be able to do that by putting a small graphic for the right-angle in a separate table cell.You might be able to use an
fo:leader
inside anfo:block-container
orfo:inline-container
that hasreference-orientation="270"
. The leader pattern (and content of thefo:leader
) would be a graphic for a segment of the line of the arrow. Thefo:leader
would be followed by a graphic for the arrowhead.You may be able to use
fo:marker
andfo:retrieve-table-marker
to put a graphic for the arrowhead in thefo:table-footer
only when required. Thefo:table-cell
(orfo:table-row
) that needs the arrowhead would set thefo:marker
, and thefo:table-cell
in the followingfo:table-row would set an empty
fo:marker` so that the arrowhead isn't repeated.You may be able to float an image for the arrow to the right, but getting it to be the correct length could be tricky.
If you can provide some sample FO markup, we may be able to provide a more specific answer.
