frames and hyphenation

[Hans van der Meer]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 792 bytes --]

I encountered some strange thing with framedtext's in trying to  
define one where hyphenation is suppressed. The definition is:
\defineframedtext[myblock][frame=off,style=\tt,width=0.8 
\makeupwidth,before=\nohyphens]
But then \startmyblock text \stopmyblock does not stop hyphenation.
While \startmyblock\nohyphens text \stopmyblock stops it.
Since I would like to have the myblock's all having suppressed  
hyphenation I am at a loss how to do it. Could it be that the  
\nohyphens in the "before" is overriden by something? It looks like,  
because setting lefthyphenmin and righthyphenmin zero at that point  
did not work either.
By the way it is a bit difficult to give an exact example, because  
hyphenation so much depends on ones linesize and font dimensions.

Well, it nearly always helps to put a problem to this newsgroup. It  
helps you concentrate better!
The solution was simply, though not obvious at first.
It should not haven been "before=\nohyphens" but "top=\nohyphens".
