Hi Aditya,
Thank you for your reply and for the link to your article: your explanations
are cristal clear and the solution for me is to use what you explain.
There is only one issue remaining, when using your code, that is:
\definetextbackground
[leftbartext]
[
location=paragraph,
mp=mpos:region:leftbar,
width=broad,
frame=off,
framecolor=darkred,
rulethickness=.5pt,
leftoffset=2ex,
% rightoffset=2.25ex,
% topoffset=2.25ex,
% bottomoffset=2.25ex,
background=color,
backgroundcolor=white,
]
\startuseMPgraphic{mpos:region:leftbar}
draw_multi_pars;
draw_multi_side;
\stopuseMPgraphic
then when there is a footnote the leftbartext runs into the footnote, between
the number and the footnote itself, and the result is not nice. I did not find
a way to push the footnote and its number a little to the right, or the
leftbartext to the left.
Best regards: OK
