Hello *, inspired by Gerben's question, I did some experimenting with \framed. I'd like to get A[text]B, where text is some long thing in a framed box like \framed[width=5cm] {\input tufte \par}. There are three different ways of aligning the three objects: (A and B on the same baseline as the first row) A We thrive in information- B ------------------------------- thick worlds because of our marvelous and everyday ca- (A and B in the middle of the box, not necessarily on the same baseline as a line in the box) criminate, distinguish, screen, A pigeonhole, pick over, sort, B integrate, blend, inspect, (A and B on the same baseline as the last row) from the chaff and seperate A the sheeps from the goats. B -------------------------------- I was unable to get any of these alignments. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net
