Hello,
i have a simple (?) layout question. I want to typeset a doublesided text with a larger margin on one side. This margin will be filled with 'margin images' or 'margin remarks'. But sometimes, larger images have to be placed in the text+margin.
Which commands, options or setups are correct, to get the same results on odd and even pages? In the attached pdf file, odd and even pages behave different, using a simple setup (see tex file).
it's dangerous to use dimensions in \setuplayout that get set themselves
also, textwidth is for special purposed and special effects, not to be used here (spoils things)
\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\setuplayout [width=middle, backspace=.75in, curspace=2.55in, leftmargin=.50in, margindistance=.25in, rightmargin=2.3in]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}]
\starttext
The very first page with a small image in the (bigger) margin.
\placefigure [inright]{a margin image} {\framed[width=\marginwidth,height=3cm]{image}}
\input tufte
An now a larger image in the text and margin are
\placefigure [here,inright]{a text+margin image} {\framed[width=1.2\textwidth,height=3cm]{image}}
\inmargin{Tufte text} \input tufte \page
The second page with a small image in the (bigger) margin.
\placefigure [inright] {a margin image} {\framed[width=\rightmarginwidth,height=3cm]{image}}
\input tufte
An now a larger image in the text and margin are
\placefigure [here,inright] {a text+margin image} {\framed[width=1.2\textwidth,height=3cm]{image}}
\inmargin{Tufte text} \input tufte \page

Thanks for the quick response. I have some questions about your code, because it does not fullfill all my wishes. The command \inmargin now correctly puts its text on the correct side on even and odd pages. But i would like to have the same behaviour for the figures too. In a longer script, TeX should know, if the margin image has to be placed left or right. So 'inright' or 'inleft' is not an option. And 'margin' does not work ... (the image is placed mostly outside the page). In your code, the long image on the second page does not start in the left margin, as desired. %-------- % output=pdf \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \setuplayout [%width=middle, backspace=.75in, curspace=2.55in, leftmargin=.50in, margindistance=.25in, rightmargin=2.3in] \setuppagenumbering[alternative={doublesided}] \starttext The very first page with a small image in the (bigger) margin. \placefigure [margin]{a margin image} {\framed[width=\marginwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \input tufte And now a larger image in the text and margin \placefigure [here,inright]{a text+margin image} {\framed[width=1.2\textwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \inmargin{Tufte text} \input tufte \page The second page with a small image in the (bigger) margin. \placefigure [margin] {a margin image} {\framed[width=\marginwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \input tufte And now a larger image in the text and margin \placefigure [here,inleft] {a text+margin image} {\framed[width=1.2\textwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \inmargin{Tufte text} \input tufte \page %-------- Any help appreciated richard -- ============================================================================== Richard Rascher-Friesenhausen MeVis -- Centrum fuer Medizinische Diagnosesysteme und Visualisierung GmbH Universitaetsallee 29 D-28359 Bremen email: richard@mevis.de, richard.rascher-friesenhausen@hs-bremerhaven.de www : http://www.mevis.de/, http://www.hs-bremerhaven.de/ fon : +49 - 421 - 218 7707 (mevis) fax : +49 - 421 - 218 4236 (mevis) ==============================================================================
