Hello, I'd need to place a picture and let it be flowed by some text from the right side. My observation is that only one (= the first) paragraph flows the picture correctly (see the "\input tufte" only case); see the attached example. It there a way how to: - enable heads (e.g. \subject) in the hang-around area (see the "Ccc" text placement)? - enable more than one paragraph in the hang-around area (see the knuth being \input)? - enable "tabulate" (see "TTT ttt" and "UUU uuu" lines)? (The "C" "tabulate" style is defined in the way that the rightmost column should have fixed width of 2 in, whilst the leftmost column should have remaining width; "remaining" in this case should mean \textwidth minus width-of-the-picture (minus some gap).) I can imagine that \(start/stop)hangaround command is a bit limited and/or experimental in use; anyway - is there another way how to "earmark" some area for a picture and to use the "remaining" space for text flowing "as usual" with less restrictions? Best regards, Lukas

Have you tried \placefigure[right,none]{}{\externalfigure[...]} Aditya
Hello,
thanks Aditya, \placefigure does the job:
- multiple paragraphs flow the picture - OK,
- heads may flow the picture as well ("\setupheads[aligntitle=float]" required) - OK,
- "tabulate" is still drawn over the picture, but it doesn't cause jumping to the bottom of the picture - useful. (In my actual case, this only means to not use the first column of "tabulate" which only one would overwrite the picture - that's OK.)
The final test is attached.
Thanks again.
Lukas

Hello, still some problems inserting a "tabulate" next to the picture (to be flowed around) - see the case study: - Case 1: There is some (unwanted) space bellow the picture which is not occupied by the surrounding text. It seems the height of "tabulate" is added bellow the picture and creates some "restricted" area. - Case 2: When all cells in the first column in the "tabulate" are empty ("\NC \NC"), the first column is somehow "ignored" (?!). - Case 3: There must be a space (some horizontal material?) at least in one cell of the first column to avoid ignoring the first column. So - is it restricted to use "tabulate" next to a picture to be flowed around? - I used "tabulate" to align some text horizontally. In the case attached, I'd like the rightmost column to have 2 inches in width and to be left-aligned. And I'd need to keep this disposition also in the flow around area next to the picture. Is there another way to achieve this, if this were not possible to use "tabulate"? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.
