Why does \startalignment[right]
or \framed[align=right]{some text}
align my text left instead of right and vice versa?
- This is for backward compatibility with older versions; see Right and left. Hans was originally thinking of "ragged right" and "ragged left" alignment. Use flushleft and flushright instead.
