margin.note.float.type

margin.note.float.type — Select type of float for margin note customizations

Synopsis

<xsl:param name="margin.note.float.type">none</xsl:param>

Description

Selects the type of float for margin notes. DocBook does not define a margin note element, so this feature must be implemented as a customization of the stylesheet. See margin.note.properties for an example.

  • If margin.note.float.type is none, then no float is used.

  • If margin.note.float.type is before, then the float appears at the top of the page. On some processors, that may be the next page rather than the current page.

  • If margin.note.float.type is left or start, then a left side float is used.

  • If margin.note.float.type is right or end, then a right side float is used.

  • If your XSL-FO processor supports floats positioned on the inside or outside of double-sided pages, then you have those two options for side floats as well.
