Hi,
as i'm working with grob alignment, i've stumbled upon
if (Paper_column::has_interface (him))
return scm_from_double (0.0);
in Self_alignment_interface::aligned_on_parent - I'm not sure what is
its purpose. This was introduced by Han-Wen's commit
ebb1f1f12ab21af1d365a635aa17e39e47a7c2b5, but the commit doesn't
contain any additional explanations.
My understanding is that a PaperColumn doesn't have well-defined
extent, so if some grob's parent is a PaperColumn, it doesn't make
sense to calculate the alignment based on extents. Am i right?
If so, i suppose that it's not necessary to immediately return in such
a case - we could just skip
Interval he = him->extent (him, a);
if (!he.is_empty ())
x += he.linear_combination (align);
and calculate the offset based on grob's extent - this would
effectively work as Self_alignment_interface::aligned_on_self. Did i
get it right?
cheers,
Janek
