Is indenting a solution for you?

Hi Wolfgang,

thanks for your suggestion. That’s what I have right now, but this won’t make the lines flushright, and that’s what the publisher wants. I have every line of translation wrapped into an environment, and there is never more that one line break, so my question boils down to: how can I inject a \hfill after this line break? Or any low level trickery with \rlap etc.?

\starttext \showframe \setuplayout[width=4cm] % \raggedright \leftskip \zeropoint plus \plustwo\bodyfontsize \rightskip \zeropoint plus 1fill \parfillskip \zeropoint plus -1fill \spaceskip \interwordspace \xspaceskip .5\emwidth but just a test for a very long line \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Would it be useful to add this (and middle align last line) as two new alignment options?

as usual the question is then ... what keywords etc (maybe wolfgang has a suggestion) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

as usual the question is then ... what keywords etc (maybe wolfgang has a suggestion) When you don’t want a new variable you can use "end".

The alignment doesn’t work well with short paragraphs. %% begin example \starttext \showframe \leftskip \zeropoint plus \plustwo\bodyfontsize \rightskip \zeropoint plus 1fill \parfillskip \zeropoint plus -1fill \spaceskip \interwordspace \xspaceskip .5\emwidth What does happen with a short paragraph? Make it even shorter! \stoptext %% end example Wolfgang
