Hello,
a couple of questions on framed texts.
(1) What's the difference between framedtext and framed?
(\defineframedtext, \defineframed)
(2) when using a framedtext it's possible to choose wether to
align the box in the middle or shuffled left or right with the
first optional argument [left,middle,right]. It is not possible to
set this when defining the framedtext, though. Why?
TIA

The next release will offer "location=left|right|middle|none"; the next
should work with the beta (not sure)
\def\dododostartframedtext[#1][#2][#3]%
{\doifsomething{#2}{\setvalue{\??kd#1\c!plaats}{#2}}%
\processaction % \v!laag en \v!diepte are already taken !
[\getvalue{\??kd#1\c!plaats}]
[ \v!links=>\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!links }\relax
\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!rechts}\hfill,
\v!rechts=>\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!links }\hfill
\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!rechts}\relax,
\v!midden=>\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!links }\hfill
\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!rechts}\hfill,
\v!geen=>\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!links }\relax % new
\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!rechts}\relax]% new
\letvalue{\??kd#1\c!plaats}\empty
....
(you definitely know where to patch this -)

\hbox to \hsize \bgroup
\startframedtext[none][width=.5\textwidth]
\input tufte
\stopframedtext
\startframedtext[none][width=.5\textwidth]
\input zapf
\stopframedtext
\egroup

No, that will not work.
After much probing I found the culprit.
The framedtext takes the full linewidth and apparently does not
reduces it to the given size.
Therefore enclosing in a vbox seems necessary:
\vbox{\hsize=framesize\startframedtext{width=framesize ...
Question for Hans Hagen: is it an option letting framedtext set the
hsize when a specific width is given?
yours sincerely,
dr. H. van der Meer

\placesidebyside (context manual p.228) should work. A \hbox is another
option, but maybe too unhandy for this.

I want to put to some paragraphs, each as framed text, on one line.
Such as:
\startframedtext[width=...]
para 1
\startitemize
....etc
\stopframedtext
\startframedtext[width=...]
para 2
\startitemize
....etc
\stopframedtext
I tried some things but the two frames will not come out on one line.
How to do this?
yours sincerely,
dr. H. van der Meer
