Hi,
I have the following example:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\setupdelimitedtext[blockquote]
[leftmargin=1.5em,rightmargin=0em,]
\starttext
\input knuth
\startblockquote
\input knuth
\stopblockquote
\startblockquote
\righttoleft
\input knuth
\stopblockquote
\input knuth
\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\righttext seems to change the locations of the margins, i.e. leftmargin becomes rightmargin and vice-versa. That may be nice in some situations, but I need to keep the margins where they are. Is there a way to do this? (Maybe \righttoleft is the wrong command?) I thought I could define a new rtlblockquote with appropriate settings, like so:
\definedelimitedtext[rtlblockquote]
\setupdelimitedtext[rtlblockquote]
[leftmargin=0em,rightmargin=1.5em,before={\righttoleft}]
But maybe there’s a better way. Any hints? You switch directions when we're still in vertical mode, so you need:
\startblockquote \dontleavehmode\righttoleft\ignorespaces \input knuth \stopblockquote I can add this: \permanent\protected\def\rtltext {\groupedcommand{\dontleavehmode\righttoleft\ignorespaces}\removeunwantedspaces} \permanent\protected\def\ltrtext {\groupedcommand{\dontleavehmode\lefttoright\ignorespaces}\removeunwantedspaces} but only when you wikify it \startblockquote \rtltext{\input{knuth}} \stopblockquote ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
