Constructor Detail

### MainReference

    public MainReference(BodyRegion parent)

  Constructor

Parameters:
  `parent` - the body region this reference area is placed in.

Method Detail

  Get the span areas from this area.

  Returns:
    the list of span areas

### setSpans

    public void setSpans(java.util.List spans)

  Do not use. Used to handle special page-master for last page: transfer the content that had already been added to a normal page to this main reference for the last page. TODO this is hacky.

  Parameters:
    `spans` - content already laid out

### getCurrentSpan

    public Span getCurrentSpan()

  Get the span area currently being filled (i.e., the last span created).

  Returns:
    the active span.

### isEmpty

    public boolean isEmpty()

  Indicates whether any child areas have been added to this reference area. This is achieved by looping through each span.

  Returns:
    true if no child areas have been added yet.
