I have had a great deal of trouble making what should be quite simple, boxed environments. I want to define boxed environments that will allow for enumerated items and also simple text. I found the following solution which I am using and it works with some deficiency:
Code: Select all
\newenvironment{focusq}%
{\noindent\textbf{Focus Questions:}\\ \newline\begin{Sbox} \begin{minipage}{5in}
\begin{itemize} }%
{\end{itemize}\end{minipage}\newline\end{Sbox}\fbox{\TheSbox}\newpage}I can not get the box to remain within the margin. I understand that I have give a 5in size for the
{minipage}, but that is out of desperation. So I will pose the following question:How can I define a simple boxed environment or a boxed environment with enumerated items, such that it does not cross the margin?
