Subject: Orphans and Windows
Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2013 16:03:45 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D022B473-A253-4D02-811F-1E8DEE9357F5@stien.de> (raw)
G'day everyone,
I use introductory sentences to numbered lists all the time, like this (where \startnlist...\stopnlist is a custom itemised list):
To remove a foo from a pool of foos:
\startnlist
\item Do this...
\item Do that...
\item ...and so on...
\stopnlist
On occasions, I am getting that introductory sentence as an orphaned line at the end of a page and my numbered list as the first thing on the next page. How can I avoid that? There is not much about orphans and widows on the Wiki or in the reference manual.
Thank you,
Malte.
