Hi,

How can I go about customising the value of provisional-distance-between-starts that is used for an orderedlist? It is currently at 1.2em in my XSL FO output and that is not enough for double-digit numbers - they get squished in. param.xsl defines the value at 2em, but that is not what I get in the output (I get 1.2em). I tried copying the following into my customisation layer:

<xsl:attribute-set name="orderedlist.properties" use-attribute-sets="list.block.properties">
<xsl:attribute name="provisional-distance-between-starts">2em</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>


Which didn't have any effect. provisional-distance-between-starts is used a lot in lists.xsl, and I can't tell exactly which instance exactly passes the value in.

Hi,
That particular property is controlled by a separate stylesheet
parameter, as well as an optional processing instruction for an
individual list. Those override the attribute-set property. See the
second half of this webpage for details:
