Subject: Switching to righttoleft without changing margins of delimited text
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2021 16:25:28 +0000	[thread overview]

Hi,

I have the following example:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\setupdelimitedtext[blockquote]
                [leftmargin=1.5em,rightmargin=0em,]

\starttext

\input knuth

\startblockquote
\input knuth
\stopblockquote

\startblockquote
\righttoleft
\input knuth
\stopblockquote

\input knuth

\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\righttext seems to change the locations of the margins, i.e. leftmargin becomes rightmargin and vice-versa. That may be nice in some situations, but I need to keep the margins where they are. Is there a way to do this? (Maybe \righttoleft is the wrong command?) I thought I could define a new rtlblockquote with appropriate settings, like so:

\definedelimitedtext[rtlblockquote]
\setupdelimitedtext[rtlblockquote]
                [leftmargin=0em,rightmargin=1.5em,before={\righttoleft}]

But maybe there's a better way. Any hints?

Denis
