How to change default formatting for Figure Titles

I have been using basic figures in the following manner:

 

- <figure>

      <title>This is a title</title>

      <graphic fileref="image.png" width="12cm" align="center" />

</figure>

 

However, when rendered though the Saxon 6.5.5/FOP 0.94  team the title is left aligned and the image is centered.

 

I would like to make sure that the TITLE alignment mirrors what the image alignment is. If I can't do that, I would like to change the default alignment for the figure titles.

 

Does anyone have a solution for these?

 

 

Thanks for  your help,

Dean Nelson

DocBook FO XSL has an attribute set called "component.title.properties"  which you need to customize to include parent::figure in the test for text-align to be "center". Or you could get the value of the "align" attribute of the "graphic" child.

You could also customize the template with match="figure" in fo/formal.xsl.
Oddly enough, the template for example elements peeks into the mediaobject
to get the align value and uses that for the title, but figure does not.  I
can't explain the difference.  But you could borrow the code from example to
customize your figure template.
