[NTG-context] doublesided layout with floating text blocks wrapped in the main text

2011-10-10 Thread Alexandre Leray

Hi,

how can I insert text blocks of texts of half the width of the text zone 
(+ gutter) tand make the main text flow wrap around them?
I'd like the blocks to be aligned on the outer side of the page (the 
document is doublesided).


My guess was to use floats but I don't need captions. Could you give me 
a snipet of how i'd need to do it?


You'll find a quick example of what I have in mind at this address:

Thanks!

Alex

Do they have fixed dimensions ?
If so maybe column sets can help:
