Hello,
could someone point out to me, where in the standalone installation the 'margin float placement' algorithm lives.
it depends: Floats: strc-flt.mkvi Side floats: page-sid.mkiv Margin data (as in your example): typo-mar.mkiv
and their respective .lua companions. I suspect you will be interested in the function „inject()“ (part of the finalizer) in typo-mar.lua.
keep in mind that this is not finished yet i.e. there is no api at the lua end yet
is there a way for margintext to 'respect' the lower border of the page and push the margintext up, pushing other margintexts upwards while doing so?
+1, I’m curious too whether this can be done.
maybe some day when I'm looking into the page builder code

Is it possible, as a workaround for now, to make every \margintext call to virtually occur at the first line of the page? Then, they are stacked in sequence in the margin from the top of the page down, but on the page they occur.
not in the next few weeks as we don't change anything fundamental while in tex live code freeze / going current .. only fixes now Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
