Hello,
does ConTeXt have something which is halfway between itemizations and descriptions? I have a small set of properties that should be enumerated together. Right now I'm doing it by defining a \description and then doing
\desc{something} stuff \par \desc{something else} other stuff \par etc
\startdesc {something} .... \stopdesc
is an alternative syntax
Yeah, I know, but it's still clumsy.
However, this is an overall cumbersome syntax, especially for the result I would like to obtain.
using \startitemize ...\stopitemize with \sym{something} \sym{something else} comes *very* close to what I would like but I can't seem to find a way to prevent the \sym text to wade into the actualt text of the description.
Suggestions?
you want more space for the sym?
\startitemize[5*broad] \item {word} .... \item {another} .... \stopitemize
(if needed, you can define an itemgroup with a default wider left margin)
No please this is horrible. I would like the item/desc/head to 'run in' the text. I guess I'll have to use the \startdesc stuff :\ -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
