vertical position of framed sucks!

vertical position of framed sucks!

[Steffen Wolfrum]

Hi,

in order to write a command=... for \setuphead I am fighting with the  
following \framed:


\starttext
\showframe

\def\TestFrame%
{\hbox to \hsize\bgroup%
\tbox{\midaligned\framed[frame=on,align=middle,width=0.85\textwidth] 
{{\kern0.75em}Test}}%
\egroup}

\TestFrame

%Test% <-

\stoptext



I only want the framed "Test" to be at the same vertical position as  
the plain "Test" (please compare).

Just how???


Thanks,

Steffen

i'm not sure what you mean but

\starttext

\def\TestFrame
   {\dontleavehmode
    \inframed[align=middle,width=0.85\textwidth]{{\kern0.75em}Test}}%

\TestFrame Test

\stoptext

puts them along side

when making head commands, it often helps to put #1 as well as #2 in a 
framed and then box the whole

a framed ends up as just a vbox with no depth (unless set)

\def\TestFrame%
  {\hbox to \hsize\bgroup
   \midaligned\framed[frame=on,align=middle,width=0.85\textwidth]
   {{\kern0.75em}Test}\egroup}

but i'm also unsure what you exactly want to achieve ;)

best wishes, peter

Hi,

sorry for my foggy post last night (02:50h ...)

Hopefully this example makes it clearer:
--

\starttext
\showframe

\definehead[EbeneFuenf]	[subsubsubsection]
\setupsection[section-6][conversion=characters,previousnumber=yes]
\def\FuenfCommand#1{#1.}

\def\CurrentEbeneFuenfNumber#1#2%
{\hbox to \hsize\bgroup%
\tbox{\midaligned 
\framed[offset=-0.5pt,frame=on,align=middle,width=0.85\textwidth] 
{{\FuenfCommand{\convertnumber{characters} 
{\countervalue{@@sesection-6}}}}{\kern0.75em}#2}}%
\egroup}

\setuphead[EbeneFuenf][command=\CurrentEbeneFuenfNumber]% using this  
command moves the line 2mm down?!

\EbeneFuenf{Test}

\stoptext

--
I wanted to define a command with a fixed width in order to determine  
a maximum width for a section.
But using this command (i.e. the "framed") also moves the section down  
about 2mm!

How can this be avoided?

Steffen

% insert here
\showboxes % see differences between \tbox and \hbox

have you tried my solution?

same answer :)

the \tbox does exactly what it should do (see p.85, context manual).
use a \hbox instead and the text is (nearly, exactly?) on the same
vertical position as plain text. but this highly depends on the offset
of \framed.

btw: you need the outer \hbox for the right total width and the inner
\framed for the frame and alignment. why the \tbox or any additional box?

best wishes, peter

yes, thank you, it just didn't work as expected: there still was a  
small vertical skip.

this (provided by Wolfgang) is what i wanted to achieve:

\def\CurrentEbeneFuenfNumber#1#2%
  {\midaligned{\inframed[width=.85\textwidth,align=middle] 
{#1\kern0.75em#2}}}

thanks again for your efforts,

steffen
