Hello, The error actually comes from a construct like @cartouche @float Table,label @caption{Return} @end float @end cartouche My feeling is that @float should only be valid at top-level, not in a block command, such as @cartouche, if in a block, the float cannot float. I would propose to ha

Hi Patrice. Having @cartouche take an optional title and render as in Docbook would be a perfect solution for me. I don't need the @sidebar command specifically, just the fucntionality. So, I really like this suggestion. I don't think there are specific constraints to what can go into a sidebar
