That's right. Really, that 'Max Margin' value works as a scale factor, not a 'cap' setting the maximum margin width. The ugly details are:
1) Freda will look at the formatting info in the style sheet(s) and decide for each block of text what margin it should have above/below/left/right. Freda collapses all the complexity of different margin sizes into a margin size of none/small/medium/large.
2) To turn those 'none/small/medium/large' values into an actual on-screen margin width, use the following lookup table
Code:
'Max Margin'
0 10 20 30
none 0 0 0 0
small 0 3 6 10
medium 0 7 14 20
large 0 10 20 30
Those on-screen widths, BTW are measured in units of 'percent of screen width'.
Why did I make it so complicated? You may well ask! I ask the same myself.
