Does Apache FOP 2.1 or 2.2 support the XSL fo:change-bar formatting object? Version 1.1 did not.

I am using the version of Apache FOP - 1.0 or 1.1 - that is built into the oXygen XML Author 17.1 product.  That formatter does not support rendering change bars to PDF via the ditaval revprop element.  Does anyone know if a more current release of FOP supports change bars?  (I couldn't find anything about it on the Apache FOP site, but I'm still hoping I just wasn't looking in the right place.)  Thanks very much.

Hi Gary,

There is an Apache FOP compliance page:

https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/compliance.html

where for each feature you can see in which Apache version is supported. You can search for "change-bar", it does not seem to be supported in FOP 2.1 which comes bundled with Oxygen 18.0.
Probably DITA OT 2.4 will also come bundled by default with Apache FOP 2.1.

Regards,
Radu
