I posted this message two days ago; but it has not appeared on the list,
though it is in the archive (with no responses);
So here it is again:
Hi to the most helpful users-list I know,
I am using memoir to print a book, with a wide margin for graphics.
As I don't need this wide empty margin when printing pagenotes,
I need to change margins for the page notes at the end of each chapter.
I can do this with the preamble code:
\newenvironment{changemargin}[2]{%
\begin{list}{}{%
\setlength{\leftmargin}{#1}%
\setlength{\rightmargin}{#2}}%
\item[]}{\end{list}}
Then in ERT in the text:
\clearpage
\begin{changemargin}{0cm}{-2.8cm}
\printpagenotes*
\end{changemargin}
Since some page notes run for two pages, I need to cope with recto and
verso pages, whereas the above values need to be set up for one or the
other.
I have tried innermargin & outermargin or spinemargin & edgemargin with no
recognition.
Do I need to use Boolean programing (ifrecto or ifverso) to handle this
switching of margins, or does memoir have a simpler way?
I would greatly appreciate advice on this one.
Cheers, George Legge
