Hi,
There has been some additions to itemize wrt columns. One problem with
columns is that we have a 'cross page' and 'balancing' situation. The
existing columns features has been improved a bit.
That leaves the problem that mixing single and multi columns is not
really tex's strong point. So, when Mikael and I were looking at one of
his documents that mixes a lot of math into itemized situations, a
different variant was made (ok, there was another reason but that's a
bit technical).
At that time, I had already adapted itemize to work a bit better with
bTABLE and starttabulate (nesting, trial mode etc), think of
\bTABLE \bTR \bTD
\startitemize[a]
\startitem
\im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}}
\stopitem
\startitem
\startitemize[n]
\startitem
\im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}}
\stopitem
\startitem
\im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}}
\stopitem
\stopitemize
\stopitem
\startitem
\im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}}
\stopitem
\stopitemize
\eTD \eTR \eTABLE
or with tabulate
\startitemize[n]
\starttabulate[||k2|]
\NC \startitem test \stopitem
\NC \startitem test \stopitem \NC \NR
\NC \startitem test \stopitem
\NC \startitem test \stopitem \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\stopitemize
so basically inside these tables items can be dealt with. Don't wonder
too much how this translates into structure.
So, back the columns, a logical next step was to add tabulated columns
to itemize:
\startitemizetable[n,four]
\dorecurse{10}{
\startitem
\im{\sqrt{\frac{1}{x^4}}}
\stopitem
\startitem
\im{\sqrt{x^5}}
\stopitem
\startitem
\im{\frac{x^5}{x^5}}
\stopitem
}
\stopitemizetable
or with
Hans
ps. The page columns also have some improvements but that's for next month.
