Hi all,
I try to get text flowing nicely around a figure but since I'm working
in a columns environment \placefloat related stuff doesn't work. Using
\starthangaround I get precisely what I want but I need to place figures
to the right instead of to the left. I modified the definition for
\starthangaround (from cont-new.tex) but I'm afraid I don't understand
enough of it to get it working, anyone who can help?
\starttext
\def\startmyhangaround
{\noindent\bgroup
\dowithnextbox
{\ifdim\nextboxht>\strutht\setbox\nextbox\tbox{\flushnextbox}\fi
\setbox\nextbox\hbox{\flushnextbox\hskip\@@hadistance}%
\getboxheight\scratchdimen\of\box\nextbox
\getnoflines\scratchdimen
\nextboxdp\strutdp
\nextboxht\strutht
\hangindent\nextboxwd
\hangafter-\noflines
\rlap{\flushnextbox}\ignorespaces}
\hbox}
\startcolumns[n=2,balance=yes]
\dorecurse{2}{\input tufte \par}
\startmyhangaround{\externalfigure[cow]} % figure placement is right but,
\input tufte % this
text needs to start left...
\stophangaround
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
Thanks,
Jelle
