We have had a request to add a "hanging indent paragraph" element to our

how to render this paragraph in XXE via CSS.
Trying the following does not work because the negative value for
text-indent is ignored.
hangingIndent
{
display:block;
/* negative text-indent does not work */
text-indent:-.25in;
padding-left: .25in;
margin: 1.33ex 0;
}
If I use a positive value, then text-indent is applied but that is the
incorrect rendering.
Is there a way to get the CSS to show a hanging indent paragraph?
(We're using version 5.3.0 of XXE.)
There is a bug which causes CSS property text-indent to be ignored when its
value was negative. I mean, as if a negative value was not allowed by the
CSS standard.
I always thought that this limitation was not a bug, but intentional. In
order to properly select elements with a mouse click is seems necessary
that the rendered contents of an element do not extend beyond its bounding box.
Anyway a safe negative indent or padding would be possible to some extent
if they meet some conditions:
margin + padding >= 0
margin + padding + indent >= 0
This bug is now fixed in the development version of XXE. The bug fix will
be available in the next release of XXE.
Glad to ear this.
