Hi again TeXmacs folks,

I'm having trouble with line-wrapping of items inside floating figures, which is perhaps related to this thread, though what I've seen of this thread has not enlightened me as to a fix, since I'm not writing a macro.

See the attached .tm and .pdf for details.

Thanks for any help you can provide,
Dave Wonnacott

Hello,

I'm trying to build a custom "algorithmic" environment. When I try to define a macro "alg-item" that generates an "<item>", Texmacs doesn't wrap the line anymore (see demo below).

Any ideas why?

Best Regards,
Jan

<chapter|In Which we Attempt a List in a Figure>

I am trying to create a floating figure that contains a list in which the
items may span several lines, but am having trouble because when I try this
the items don't ``wrap''. This is with TeXmacs 1.0.7.3 running on Ubuntu
10.04.

Here, I create the figure --\<gtr\> <\float|float|tbh>
<\big-figure>
<label|fig-long-items>

<\description-aligned>
<item*|1a>Create a figure with Insert-\<gtr\>Page
Insertion-\<gtr\>Floating figure

<item*|1b>Label and caption the figure, just because I always do that

<item*|2a>Create the list with the ``Aligned'' style

<item*|2b>Other styles may demonstrate the problem; I've not checked

<item*|2c>I'm using aligned because I happen to want slighly strange
numbering

<item*|3>Enter some really really long text, to demonstrate that it
goes off into the margin rather than wrapping each line as I wanted
it to.

<item*|4>Create a simplified copy just giving these instructions, to
veryify the problem

<item*|5>Get help from TeXmacs-users mailing list.
</description-aligned>

</big-figure|The long-item list in a figure.>
</float> \<less\>--, known as Figure <reference|fig-long-items>. Note the
problem reading all of Step 3.

Here is a copy of the content of the figure, which line-wraps just fine:

<\description-aligned>
<item*|1a>Create a figure with Insert-\<gtr\>Page
Insertion-\<gtr\>Floating figure

<item*|1b>Label and caption the figure, just because I always do that

<item*|2a>Create the list with the ``Aligned'' style

<item*|2b>Other styles may demonstrate the problem; I've not checked

<item*|2c>I'm using aligned because I happen to want slighly strange
