Anywhere there are multiple consecutive examples it is visually easier to manage if there is at least some blank space between them so the abutting table frames do not look like an internal heading rule. This a problem on hardcopy where the grey example text background does not appear as well as in softcopy once the size of an example (grey or not) exceeds screen length. The ones I caught are enumerated below, but there may well be others. 3.3.2 between - The facet type is defined and the facet element is declared to use it. and - The following example illustrates conditional type assignment to an element, 3.4.2 where I count 6 examples in a row
HT will check on this issue. If he fails we will close this issue without further action.
A stylesheet change has been made, in order to provide some inter-example whitespace. The effect can be seen most clearly in section 3.4.2.6: http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-1/structures.html#dcl.ctd.exx (member-only link) With that change, the WG believes this issue to have been resolved, and I'm marking it accordingly. The precise amount of whitespace to be used (currently 0.6em) remains subject to change, and comments on it are welcome, particularly from readers with good visual and design sense. John, if you would indicate your assent to or dissent from this disposition of the comment by closing or reopening it, it would be helpful. If we don't hear otherwise from you before the end of August, we'll assume that you are happy.
looks fine, my aging eyeballs thank you
