Dear Marco,
I'd like to type two blocks of text with different 'align' settings
side by
side.
Here's one way to do it:
\setupframed
[offset=1ex,
width=8cm,
frame=off]
\starttext
\placesidebyside
{\startframed[align={normal,left}] \input knuth\par\stopframed}
{\startframed[align={normal,right}] \input knuth\par\stopframed}
\stoptext
Marco
thanks for this. I removed that framed=off option and it turned out to be
sligthly different from what I'd like to achieve.
My goal is to have two blocks with a vertical gap between them and to have
these blocks framed (or with the colored background) at the text area - without
the cell spans - to show differences between the standard and 'hanging'
alignments (that right border should cross the punctuation in the hanging mode).
Below each 'column' I'd like to place a short description (centered) - exactly
as on the referenced examples.
\startcombination?
