alignment
Where to align something along an axis.
Possible values are:
start: Aligns at the start of the text direction.end: Aligns at the end of the text direction.left: Align at the left.center: Aligns in the middle, horizontally.right: Aligns at the right.top: Aligns at the top.horizon: Aligns in the middle, vertically.bottom: Align at the bottom.
These values are available globally and also in the alignment type's scope, so you can write either of the following two:
#align(center)[Hi]
#align(alignment.center)[Hi]
2D alignments
To align along both axes at the same time, add the two alignments using the
+ operator. For example, top + right aligns the content to the top right
corner.
#set page(height: 3cm)
#align(center + bottom)[Hi]
Fields
The x and y fields hold the alignment's horizontal and vertical
components, respectively (as yet another alignment). They may be none.
#(top + right).x \
#left.x \
#left.y (none)
Definitions
Functions and types and can have associated definitions. These are accessed by specifying the function or type, followed by a period, and then the definition's name.
