Dear consortium,
In
\setuptexttexts[margin]
it would be nice to have an option for the margin text (used for headings
here) to start from the top of the textblock, instead of the middle,
something like
marginposition = top, middle % middle is default
\setuptexttexts[margin][][\setups{text a}][\setups{text b}][]
\setuptext[marginposition=top,state=high,]
As is one has to do alot of guesswork. Can this be implemented (if it is
not already)?
In any case, is there a better way to do this (see example file)?
Best
Idris
