Subject: Wide descriptions protruding into the margin
Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2012 12:47:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120914124714.33b7d495@homerow> (raw)

Hi,

with wide description heads I have the problem that the following
description protrudes into the margin.

\definedescription
  [description]
  [alternative=hanging,
   width=broad]

\starttext
\startdescription{conclusion that}
  \input knuth
\stopdescription

\startdescription{conclusion that the designer of a new system must not only be literally}
  \input knuth
\stopdescription
\stoptext

In the second case the “Thus,” should be placed on the line after
the head. How do I achieve that? My current workaround is to append
a \hbox{  } to the problematic entries.


Marco
