Hello:
I would like to make a long numbered itemize list, where the numbers increase up to three digits. I would like the numbered labels aligned to the right and the widest label's left side located at the left margin. I tried the below code but the 3 digit labels' left sides go into the left margin. How can I fix it?
Code:
\showframe \starttext \startitemize[n,broad][itemalign=flushright] \dorecurse{250}{\item aaaa} \stopitemize \stoptext
You can use the width-key to set a value for the number, below is a example for method to calculate the width based on the number of items but I would use fixed value (e.g. width=2em) to let all items (independent of the entries) start on the same position.
I normally use the `fit` key with an appropriate value of `distance`. For example: \showframe[text][text] \starttext \startitemize[n,fit,broad][distance=0.25em,itemalign=flushright] \dorecurse{1}{\startitem xxx\stopitem} \stopitemize \page \startitemize[n,fit,broad][distance=0.25em,itemalign=flushright] \dorecurse{11}{\startitem xxx\stopitem} \stopitemize \page \startitemize[n,fit,broad][distance=0.25em,itemalign=flushright] \dorecurse{111}{\startitem xxx\stopitem} \stopitemize \stoptext
