The private:block elements are trees of their own and they have their own accumulator values (that are available in the template that matches private:block). But they don't add to the 'blockHeight' accumulator of the main document.

Hello !

I have another question with accumulators. I use accumulators to calculate block height, and then to calculate block locations (y).

I have this XSL for a repro...

When I run this XSL on the sample XML, I have messages displayed : "Reset block height to 3.2", "private:block matched", but never the "Adding block height..."

According to specification [1], I expect private:block matches accumulator rule, and accumulator value being augmented by block/@height.

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks in advance,
Christophe
