Revision as of 18:17, 26 July 2005
LaTeX:
\documentclass{article} \begin{document} \begin{description} \item[Short label] bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla \item[Very long label] bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla \end{description} \end{document}
ConTeXt: \setupdescription with some special parameters (location=hanging, width=broad, margin=indentation)
\definedescription[notation][ headstyle=bold,style=normal,align=left,location=hanging, width=broad,margin=1cm] \starttext \notation{A very very very very long item} bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla \notation{i} bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla \stoptext
The empty lines (or \par) after each description (here notation) are necessary.
Hint: This solution uses the distance=dimension distance for separation of label and text.
Description with minimal label width:
LaTeX:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage{mdwlist} \begin{document} \begin{basedescript}{\desclabelstyle{\pushlabel}\desclabelwidth{6em}} \item[Label] bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla \item[Very long label] bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla \end{basedescript} \end{document} ConTeXt: ???
