\em around \placefigure (bug?)
Hello, the \em statement being placed as the first command of a paragraph to flow around a \placefigure seems to SCRATCH the figure instead of to flow around (bug?). See the minimal example: --- \starttext \placefigure [left,none] {} { \startMPcode draw (0,0)--(6cm,6cm); \stopMPcode } 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 {\em 01234656789} 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 {\em 01234656789} 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 01234656789 \input tufte \stoptext --- Best regards Lukas -- Ing.

You can add a \strut in front of {\em - that’s a usual workaround for problems with non-letters starting a paragraph. Greetlings from Lake Constance! Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
... Thanks for the answers.
I'm familiar with using \dontleavehmode when needing to keep a figure midaligned; I had no idea that this would be a similar situation (and solution).
Best regards,
Lukas

The usual workaround is \dontleavehmode.

{\em xxx ..} the first x triggers the start of a paragraph but it happens inside a group so it has side effects \dontleavehmode{\em xxx ..} here the paragraph is started outside the group ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hello,
sorry for repeating this topic, maybe it's not too attractive.
Please, have a look to the following problem.
I wonder why the behaviour described bellow occurs and how to typeset a paragraph starting with some text enclosed into {\em ...} group inside the "free" area formed (affected) by \placefigure.

\starttext \placefigure [left,none] {} { \startMPcode draw (0,0)--(6cm,6cm); \stopMPcode }
This is a normal text -- it flows around the picture on the left side of the page as expected.
{\em This empathized text starting a new paragraph} should not scratch the picture left.

Hello, of course I do not have the solution for the underlaying problem. I found out, that you can put a \strut in front of the problematic text and then it comes out ok. Another point is, that placing the whole text-part i.e. all 4 paragraphs in your example between \bgroup \egroup results in more problems. In this case the tufte-text is also not flowing around the picture. Kind regards Willi On 25 Feb 2011, at 08:56, Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. wrote:
