Hi all,
I am happy to share one way to get "pull quotes between two columns"
(in a three columns layout).
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/images/5/50/context_3columns_layout.pdf
It's not based on Columns / ColumnSet / Page Columns.
It just combines \startuseMPgraphic + build_parshape + \framed +
\getshapetext (and several precautions regarding offsets, thicknesses,
spacings, dimensions, box positioning...)
It's not used in this case, but I discovered that \placelocalfootnotes
and \reference \at \in etc... are fully functional with \getshapetext
:-)
The resulting layout isn't as complex as a newspaper, but a lot can be
done (at the cost of some investment, but really, it's not that hard).
LuaMetaTeX is definitely fun and pretty.
Thanks devs and community.
=====> One question <=====
Would it be possible to define several shapetex like
\startshapetex[NAME1], \startshapetex[NAME2], in order to alternate the
use of \getshapetext[NAME1] and \getshapetext[NAME2]
because currently only one can be active at a time ?
