ParagraphStyle.SpaceStarting Property

Available space to bottom of frame required to start this paragraph (positive is absolute size in points, negative is multiple of line pitch) (defaults to 0).

public double SpaceStarting {get; set;}

Example

style.SpaceStarting = 144; // At least two inches to bottom of frame before starting

Description

The paragraph will skip to next frame before start if there is not that much space available in current frame. The available space is counted after SpaceBefore, and is independent of SpaceAfter and SpaceFollowing.

Meaningful only when using Frame.Skip is on.

Note that SpaceStarting is less computation-intensive than SpaceFollowing.
