Subject: hangaround in right side of column?
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2009 17:27:33 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49C7C685.5060906@jhnet.nl> (raw)

Hi all,

I try to get text flowing nicely around a figure but since I'm working 
in a columns environment \placefloat related stuff doesn't work. Using 
\starthangaround I get precisely what I want but I need to place figures 
to the right instead of to the left. I modified the definition for 
\starthangaround (from cont-new.tex) but I'm afraid I don't understand 
enough of it to get it working, anyone who can help?

\starttext
\def\startmyhangaround
  {\noindent\bgroup
   \dowithnextbox
     {\ifdim\nextboxht>\strutht\setbox\nextbox\tbox{\flushnextbox}\fi
      \setbox\nextbox\hbox{\flushnextbox\hskip\@@hadistance}%
      \getboxheight\scratchdimen\of\box\nextbox
      \getnoflines\scratchdimen
      \nextboxdp\strutdp
      \nextboxht\strutht
      \hangindent\nextboxwd
      \hangafter-\noflines
      \rlap{\flushnextbox}\ignorespaces}
   \hbox}
\startcolumns[n=2,balance=yes]
\dorecurse{2}{\input tufte \par}
\startmyhangaround{\externalfigure[cow]}    % figure placement is right but,
\input tufte                                                     % this 
text needs to start left...
\stophangaround
\stopcolumns
\stoptext

Thanks,

Jelle
