Dear All,
I’d like to use a mechanism that allows me to create an itemized list with my own labels like one can with descriptions:
\definedescription[outline][ headstyle=bold,style=normal,alternative=hanging,margin=1cm,distance=-.8cm]
\starttext
\outline[Welcome] Tea
\outline[Introduction] Tufte or Knuth?
\outline[Snack] Chocolate Cake
\outline[Discussion] Knuth or Tufte?
\outline[Open End] Bear and wine
\stoptext
However, instead of the above I would like to
— have the result “packed”, i.e. without lines between the descriptions — have a stopper (“:”) after the label — have the text of the description begin after the stopper and not at a fixed indentation (distance=…)
How do I do that?
Thanks,
Matthias
The following works, but I suspect that there may be a better way to get the packing. \define[1]\outlinehead{#1:} \definedescription[outline] \setupdescription [outline] [headstyle=bold, style=normal, % alternative=hanging, width=fit, distance=1ex, before={\blank[back]}, headcommand=\outlinehead, ]
\starttext
\outline{Welcome} Tea
\outline{Introduction} Tufte or Knuth? and more and more and more and more to see what hanging does.
\outline{Snack} Chocolate Cake
\outline{Discussion} Knuth or Tufte?
\outline{Open End} Bear and wine
\stoptext Try it both with and without the hanging alternative.
And for me, beer is preferable to bear. -- Rik ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!
