Subject: Equivalent in ConTeXt mkiv for LaTeX's picture environment?
Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2016 20:31:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <576ECDFF.9030001@fehige.de> (raw)
The headline says it: As a convert from LaTeX I'm looking for the
functionality of LaTeX's picture environment, i.e. the placing of boxes
et al. according to absolute coordinates, possibly with calculating
measurements and coordinates on the go, like the stuff provided by the
picture package on LaTeX. (It's labels for cider bottles this time.)
Cheers -- Thomas
