[NTG-context] Framed text in paragraphs too wide
Dear all,
my problem with framed text persists in paragraphs: The frame extends
over the entire page as soon as the
paragraph has more than one line. Problem exists in mkii and mkiv.
Minimal example below.
Thanks,
Matthias

I have seen this before when trying to use textbacground to highlight
stuff in tables. I don't know a solution, but if want to highlight whole
paragrah, and do not want the ability to split across pages, you can use
framed texts.

Re: [NTG-context] Framed text in paragraphs too wide
Thanks Aditya,
that is what I need. I don't really understand the difference between
framedtext and textbackground, but all my framing and coloring
desires seem to be realizable with framedtext.
