I am writing a document which attempts to describe to a person who to perform certain tasks. As such I was using the list environment {description}. Later it was decided that a rating system should be implemented and place in the upper right corner of the "task" and have the text wrap around it. When I found the package wrapfig I thought all problems would be solved
Unfortunately wrapfig does not work with list environments but since I liked the format of that environment (first line unindented with the following lines indented), I thought I would just replicate it by using \leftskip and a negative parindent. And it works! Almost.
The problem is that wrapfig puts the "ratings" box into the right margin. Boo. Does anyone know how to force wrapfig to stay out of the margins?
Below is a tex code to explain what I mean:
Code: Select all
\documentclass[letterpaper,twoside,10pt]{report}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{ae,aecompl}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage[verbose]{wrapfig}
\usepackage{tabls}
\geometry{left=2cm,top=2cm,right=2cm,bottom=3cm,bindingoffset=1cm}
\setlength{\parskip}{3mm}
\setlength{\parindent}{0mm}
\setlength\tablinesep{5pt}
\setlength\arraylinesep{0pt}
\setlength\extrarulesep{3pt}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Sample Event}
{\parindent=-9mm
\addtolength\leftskip{9mm}
\begin{wraptable}{r}{0.30\textwidth}
\vspace*{-25pt}
\begin{tabular*}{0.30\textwidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}|ll|}

\textbf{2:} & test\\

\hline
\end{tabular*}
\vspace*{-25pt}
\end{wraptable}
\indent\hspace{-9mm}\textbf{Who:} some people.
\textbf{When:} At the break of dawn. Every tuesday of the second month in the winter.
\textbf{What:} Go to the Kings Square (intersection of Queen and Regent), make a cardboard shelter which can be complemented with a plastic sheet.
\textbf{Where:} Kings Square (intersection of Queen and Regent)
\textbf{Why:} to live in a cardboard box for a day. see what is like. draw attention in the community.
\par}
This is a sentence to show where the righthand side margin is and to illustrate the point that the ``ratings'' box is in the margin.
\end{document}
