Maïeul Rouquette submitted an update to the
reledpar
package.
Version number: 2.24.3 2020-11-08
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Typeset scholarly editions in parallel texts
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There where an inconstancy with hanging verses. If you defined indentation of hanging
verse as 2, with setstanzaindents{2,...}, the indentation was, in reality, typeset as
equal to 4. This happened:
- only in parallel typesetting;
- only with stanza macro, not with astanza environment.
This inconsistency has been corrected. If you want to keep old indentation after
upgrad-ing the package, just multiply by two the first argument of setstanzaindents.
