    - #### UnresolvedListElementWithLength

          public UnresolvedListElementWithLength(Position position,
                                                 MinOptMax length,
                                                 RelSide side,
                                                 boolean conditional,
                                                 boolean isFirst,
                                                 boolean isLast)

      Main constructor
      Parameters:
        `position` - the Position instance needed by the addAreas stage of the LMs.
        `length` - the length of the element
        `side` - the side to which this element applies
        `conditional` - true if it's a conditional element (conditionality=discard)
        `isFirst` - true if this is a space-before of the first area generated.
        `isLast` - true if this is a space-after of the last area generated.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### isConditional

          public boolean isConditional()

      Specified by:
        `isConditional` in class `UnresolvedListElement`
      Returns:
        true if the element is conditional (conditionality="discard")

    - #### getLength

          public MinOptMax getLength()

      Returns:
        the space as resolved MinOptMax instance

    - #### getSide

          public RelSide getSide()

      Returns:
        the side this element was generated for

    - #### isFirst

          public boolean isFirst()

      Returns:
        true if this is a space-before of the first area generated.

    - #### isLast

          public boolean isLast()

      Returns:
        true if this is a space-after of the last area generated.

    - #### notifyLayoutManager

          public abstract void notifyLayoutManager(MinOptMax effectiveLength)

      Called to notify the affected layout manager about the effective length after resolution. This method is called once before each call to the layout manager's addAreas() method.
      Parameters:
        `effectiveLength` - the effective length after resolution (may be null which equals to zero effective length)

    - #### toString

          public java.lang.String toString()

      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `java.lang.Object`
