How to achieve specific results

Preventing hyphenation

One can prevent hypenation inside a frame by passing nothypenated option to align. It is also a good idea to add verytolerant and strectch options.

\startcombination[2*1]
{\framed
   [width=5cm,
    align={flushleft}]
   {\input ward \endgraf}}
{flushleft}
{\framed
   [width=5cm,
    align={flushleft,nothyphenated,verytolerant}] % maybe also stretch
   {\input ward \endgraf}}
{flushleft,\crlf nothypenated, \crlf verytolerant}
\stopcombination

Specify the width no longer than needed

I want to specify the maximum width of a frame. If the size of the 

box is smaller than the maximum width, I want a tight box. This can be done using the autowidth=force option to framed.

\defineframed
   [tightframed][width=5cm,autowidth=force,align=middle]

\tightframed{Small}

\tightframed{A really really long line that is split at 5cm}

Rounded Coreners

\framed allows you to have round corners with corner=round. There are also other possibilities if you want round corners but not at all places by giving an appropriate number to corner=.... This example is taken from core-rul.tex and each frame is typeset using

 \framed[corener=....,frame=on]{...}
