Subject: Getting width of text to be typeset
Date: Fri, 22 May 2020 11:22:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1217e4fe7a813a0e714d342b9efec0c4@vivaldi.net> (raw)
Hello,
is it possible to get somehow the width of the "material" (box?) of the
current line which is "ready" to be typeset?
See the case:
----
\starttext
some text
pqrs % Here I need to get width (or content) of the text from the
begin of the current line,
% i.e. width of the text "pqrs".
% (Depending of the width I will decide what to do later.)
\stoptext
----
I am too laical to know how to "inject" TeX workflow or whether to
access LuaTeX internals (nodes?) to get the desired information.
- Is it possible somehow?
Best regards,
Lukas
