Hi, I’d like to have a small poem beside my text.
My approach doesn’t work, with or without \framed:
Since I need this only once, I thought I don’t need to define or setup my own float.
\setupfloat inherits from \setupframed, but the parameters width, style and background(color) don’t work.
Aren’t they supposed to work in \startplacefloat?
How can I suppress the caption? ("none" is supposed to work with \placefloat, but at least doesn’t in \startplacefloat)
With or without framed, vbox and lines didn’t change much. (Of course \framed adds a frame, but the text isn’t within).
\starttext
\dorecurse{2}{\input knuth}
\startplacefloat[
title=none, % doesn’t work
numbering=no, % wrong
location=left,
width=.33\textwidth, % doesn’t work
style=\tt, % doesn’t work
background=color,backgroundcolor=cyan, % doesn’t work
]%
%\framed[
% width=.33\textwidth,
% style=\tt,
% background=color,backgroundcolor=yellow,
%]{\vbox{%
\startlines
lichtung
manche meinen
lechts und rinks
kann man nicht
velwechsern.
werch ein illtum!
\wordright{ernst jandl}
\stoplines
%}}
\stopplacefloat
\dorecurse{2}{\input knuth}
\stoptext
Greetlings, Hraban

The first argument of \startplacefloat takes the name of the float
instance, e.g. figure (\startplacefloat [figure]) and the second
argument a limited list of keys. All other options like the background
color have to be set with \setupfloat and \setupcation.

You have to put the poem in a framed or framedtext environment with the
setting width=fit. There is no way to to do this with the float
environment alone.

Thank you!
The following works, except:
- There’s too much space (2 lines?) within the frame before the poem.
- I’d like to insert some space below the float, spaceafter doesn’t work.
\definefloat[poem]
\setupfloat[poem][
location=left, % doesn’t work
width=0.33\textwidth,
background=color,backgroundcolor=cyan,
spaceafter=1em, % doesn’t work
]
\setupcaption[poem][
location=none,
number=no,
]
\starttext
\dorecurse{2}{\input knuth}
\startplacefloat[poem][location=left,]%
\framedtext[
frame=off,
width=fit,
style=\tt,
%background=color,backgroundcolor=yellow,
]{%
\startlines%
lichtung
manche meinen
lechts und rinks
kann man nicht
velwechsern.
werch ein illtum!
\wordright{ernst jandl}
\stoplines
}
\stopplacefloat
\dorecurse{2}{\input knuth}
\stoptext
Grüßlinge, Hraban

Use the framedtext environment.

You nee sidespacebefore/after but you can only set it for *all* floats.
\definefloat [poem]
% \setupfloat
% [sidespacebefore=medium]
\setupfloat
[poem]
[background=color,
backgroundcolor=cyan]
\setupcaption
[poem]
[number=none]
\starttext
\dorecurse{2}{\samplefile{knuth}}
\startplacefloat [poem] [location=left]
\startframedtext [frame=off,width=fit,offset=0.25ex]
\startlines [style=mono]
lichtung
manche meinen
lechts und rinks
kann man nicht
velwechsern.
werch ein illtum!
