I agree, all LMs for which generatesInlineAreas() returns true. That is more or less the definition of LineLM, see its constructor. Note that you also have to deal with descendants below children, e.g. childLMs in an inlineLM. Other LMs may hide their content and return a block to LineLM. For example, fo:inline-container (I guess ICLayoutManager) may contain blocks, but hides them in a single block from the LineLM (I am guessing a bit; have never dived so deep into the details of these FOs; I compare them to TeX's vbox construct.) I will see if I can get some more info on the possible descendants of a LineLM. > >I thank all that spent some time looking at it and testing it, and I > >apologize if I have not been able to clearly explain what my aim was. > > No need to apologize or thanks us, your efforts are most appreciated.
