Interface SpanRA

All Superinterfaces:

Area, AreaNode, FOContext, OrderedTreeNode, javax.swing.tree.TreeNode

public interface SpanRA

extends Area

Represents a span-reference-area. The standard does not seem to tell us what if any FO generates a span-reference-area. The best guess is that it is generated by the region-body fo.

Method Summary

int	getCurrentColumn() Gets the current column.
NormalFlowRA	normalFlowForNextFO(FObj fo) Returns a NormalFlowRA to contain fo.
void	setCurrentColumn(int columnNumber) Sets the current column.
