direction
The four directions into which content can be laid out.
Possible values are:
ltr
: Left to right.rtl
: Right to left.ttb
: Top to bottom.btt
: Bottom to top.
These values are available globally and also in the direction type's scope, so you can write either of the following two:
#stack(dir: rtl)[A][B][C]
#stack(dir: direction.rtl)[A][B][C]
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.
