I want a colour background for verbatim text (for code), and floating figures. However if a figure floats to the bottom (as in the example below), and the verbatim text is broken over to the next page because it is long, I don’t want the colour background under the figure as well — I want no background at all. What is the correct setup to do that?
Add the following line to your document:
\setconstant\kindofpagetextareas\plusone

Thanks Wolfgang, obscure but works perfectly — Robin
