Float placement in margin

Float placement in margin

[Antoine Cailliau]

Dear all,

I would like to put a figure my edge margin, at the bottom of the page.
(so, the bottom left corner on my left pages).

I tried \inmargin but the figure is not placed in margin but at the top
of the page.

I tried \placefigure[margin] but it is placed on the top of the margin.
This is nearly what I want :)

Any clue for me ?

Thanks in advance,

Antoine

I am interested in this question as well. It could be really nice if
\placefigure[margin,bottom] could be made to work.

Btw, \placefigure[margin] doesn't appear to work in mkiv at all.

Best wishes,
Taco

After looking a bit more, I'm looking for a more generic solutions
where I can put paragraphs as well in margin.

In my thesis, I've a lot of blocks (defined by framed) that I need to
put in the margin with my text continuing his flow "normally".
\inmargin does not seems to work (a dark story with open/close
brackets make the compilation fails)

Thanks for your comment :)

Cheers,

Antoine

A small adjustment in page-mis.mkiv is needed:

line 91: plaatsrechtermargeblok --> placerightmarginblock
line 97: plaatslinkermargeblock --> placeleftmarginblock


Best wishes

Thomas
