Not true: think about a non-special-cased insetnewline. Its position directly affects the height of the cell. Now, currently, we don't have the concept of an hfill-ing inset, but if we're going to do this properly, the whole row breaking work has to become reworked as part of this metrics() stuff. And this means rewriting an awful lot of code. > I won't be able to spend any time on it during the next three weeks, though > (first some conference and than a few days off...) If you're willing to give things a go you can count on as much support + patches as I can muster :) regards john
