Hi friends,
there are for sure more sophisticated and more urgent problems,
but my question to me is really a big problem.
Isn't there anybody that knows a command or a work-around that could help?
Thank you very much,
Steffen

Hi,
Very quick hack:
\starttext
\def\hangover{\hangafter=1\hangindent=1em }% sorry for the stupid macro name
\definestartstop[hangingarea]
[before={\bgroup\appendtoks\hangover\to\everypar},
after=\egroup]
\starthangingarea
\input tufte
\input tufte
\stophangingarea
\input tufte
\stoptext

Hm, for some time there is a secret feature in cont-new.tex which i still
have to finish:
\starttext
\start
\setupparagraphintro[reset,first][\hangafter-2 \hangindent2em FIRST]
\input ward \blank \input ward \blank
\input ward \blank \input ward \blank
\stop
\page
\start
\setupparagraphintro[reset,next][\hangafter-2 \hangindent2em NEXT]
\input ward \blank \input ward \blank
\input ward \blank \input ward \blank
\stop
\page
\start
\setupparagraphintro[reset,each][\hangafter-2 \hangindent2em EACH]
\input ward \blank \input ward \blank
\input ward \blank \input ward \blank
\stop
\stoptext
The next option only works when you have the following patch in
cont-new.tex (Search for original):
\def\dosetupparagraphintro[#1][#2]%
{\processallactionsinset
[#1]
[ \v!reset=>\global\chardef\everyparagraphintro\zerocount
\global\everyfirstparagraphintro\emptytoks
\global\everynextparagraphintro \emptytoks,
\v!eerste=>\global\chardef\everyparagraphintro\plusone
\doglobal\appendtoks#2\to\everyfirstparagraphintro,
\v!volgende=>\ifcase\everyparagraphintro\global\chardef\everyparagraphintro\plusone\fi
\doglobal\appendtoks#2\to\everynextparagraphintro,
\v!elk=>\ifcase\everyparagraphintro\global\chardef\everyparagraphintro\plustwo\fi
\doglobal\appendtoks#2\to\everyfirstparagraphintro
\doglobal\appendtoks#2\to\everynextparagraphintro]}

Yes, that's right. Those quick hacks on the way are often surprising little lectures.

Hm, that's a pity. But I keep on asking for it if you don't mind?

"a secret feature" - great!
So, sometimes it really is worthwhile to ask the same question twice :o)
Thank you very much Hans
Steffen
By the way: Any news from the placefigure-cookery?
