variablelist.max.termlength
number
variablelist.max.termlength
Specifies the longest term in variablelists
24
Description
In variablelists, the listitem
is indented to leave room for the
term elements. That indent may be computed
if it is not specified with a termlength
attribute on the variablelist element.
The computation counts characters in the
term elements in the list
to find the longest term. However, some terms are very long
and would produce extreme indents. This parameter lets you
set a maximum character count. Any terms longer than the maximum
would line wrap. The default value is 24.
The character counts are converted to physical widths
by multiplying by 0.50em. There will be some variability
in how many actual characters fit in the space
since some characters are wider than others.
