Float placement in margin
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6eee225810f6c2c9d70b6b59889636a1.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Dear all, I would like to put a figure my edge margin, at the bottom of the page. (so, the bottom left corner on my left pages). I tried \inmargin but the figure is not placed in margin but at the top of the page. I tried \placefigure[margin] but it is placed on the top of the margin. This is nearly what I want :) Any clue for me ? Thanks in advance, Antoine

I am interested in this question as well. It could be really nice if \placefigure[margin,bottom] could be made to work. Btw, \placefigure[margin] doesn't appear to work in mkiv at all. Best wishes, Taco

After looking a bit more, I'm looking for a more generic solutions where I can put paragraphs as well in margin. In my thesis, I've a lot of blocks (defined by framed) that I need to put in the margin with my text continuing his flow "normally". \inmargin does not seems to work (a dark story with open/close brackets make the compilation fails) Thanks for your comment :) Cheers, Antoine

A small adjustment in page-mis.mkiv is needed: line 91: plaatsrechtermargeblok --> placerightmarginblock line 97: plaatslinkermargeblock --> placeleftmarginblock Best wishes Thomas
