Rendering for @rend="ti-X" not working for certain elements #128

Open aewingate opened 11 months ago

aewingate commented 11 months ago

The encoding guidelines state that encoders should be able to use rend="ti-X" where X = values from 1 to 10 to indicate the number of ems an indent has (see encoding guidelines here).

This appears to work for <head> and <p>. But some manuscripts are using it for <hi> and it's not working. I've used XQuery to figure out all the elements that use this attribute and these are:

It would be great if we could get the indenting to work for all elements, and also if I could have a list of the elements this rendering should work with so I can add that to the encoding guidelines.

Also, here's a list of the files that have elements that use this rendering and what elements it's applied to:

According to the CSS code, it should work from ti--1 to ti-10. I will investigate what is going on.

One thing that I found is that the indentation is not applied if the element is inline. For example, <hi> goes inline instead of forming a block in html. If the part is inline, adding an indent to it does not make sense. On the other hand, <p> and <item> forms a block in html, which enables us to add indentation. This is how html works, so it's not something we can change.
