Two rotates on the same line

Two rotates on the same line

[Cecil Westerhof]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 333 bytes --]

I am still expanding my knowledge of ConTeXt. At the moment I am playing
with \rotate. When using:
    \rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
    \rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}

This is displayed as:
    /
    \

I would like it displayed as:
    /\

How can I do that?

0° lies on the right (W), rotation is counter clockwise. The rest is up
to you :-)

You lost me. :-{

When playing with it, I found that it seems like every rotation wants its
own vertical space.

But this is only the case when the rotation is the first thing to be printed
on the line. So I changed it to:
    \
    \rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
    \rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}

and because it is nicer to have it centered:
    \midaligned{
      \
      \rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
      \rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}
    }

Tried it and now I see the problem. Sorry for confusing you. :-)

see other mails

you can also set 'location' to one of

depth fit broad high middle default

an example from the source:

% \dostepwiserecurse{0}{360}{10}
%   {\startlinecorrection[blank]
%    \hbox
%      {\expanded{\setuprotate[rotation=\recurselevel]}%
%       \traceboxplacementtrue
%       \hbox to .2\hsize{\hss\ruledhbox{\rotate[location=depth] 
{\ruledhbox{\bfb  (depth)}}}}%
%       \hbox to .2\hsize{\hss\ruledhbox{\rotate[location=fit] 
{\ruledhbox{\bfb    (fit)}}}}%
%       \hbox to .2\hsize{\hss\ruledhbox{\rotate[location=broad] 
{\ruledhbox{\bfb  (broad)}}}}%
%       \hbox to 
.2\hsize{\hss\ruledhbox{\rotate[location=normal]{\ruledhbox{\bfb 
(normal)}}}}%
%       \hbox to .2\hsize{\hss\ruledhbox{\rotate[location=high] 
{\ruledhbox{\bfb   (high)}}}}}
%    \stoplinecorrection}
