It is designed to format and display figures in a structured manner, placing them either to the left or right depending on the page type. This command helps maintain consistency in figure placement throughout a document.\\ The \texttt{\textbackslash msg} command takes eight arguments and follows the syntax:\\ \texttt{\textbackslash msg\{arg1\}\{arg2\}\{arg3\}\{arg4\}\{arg5\}\{arg6\}\{arg7\}\{arg8\}}\\ Here, \texttt{arg1} and \texttt{arg2} typically define the figure source and description, while \texttt{arg4} through \texttt{arg7} control its size, alignment, and labeling. Arguments \texttt{arg3} and \texttt{arg8} may have specific uses depending on the document's requirements.\\ One key feature of \texttt{\textbackslash msg} is its ability to adjust figure placement based on whether the current page is odd or even. Internally, the command calls \texttt{\textbackslash msgfigurer} for odd-numbered pages, aligning figures to the right, and \texttt{\textbackslash msgfigurel} for even-numbered pages, aligning figures to the left. This ensures that figures always appear near the outer margin, enhancing readability in two-sided documents.\\ A sample implementation using the \texttt{\textbackslash msg} command might look like this:\\ \texttt{\textbackslash msg\{Figure1\}\{Description\}\{Unused\}\{0.5\}\{Center\}\{Scale\}\{Label\}\{Extra\}}\\ This structure allows the document to dynamically format figures based on the page number, making it a useful tool for professional reports and books.\\ To use \texttt{\textbackslash msg}, ensure that \texttt{mag.sty} is included in your LaTeX project. Since some arguments may be ignored depending on the internal logic, refer to additional package documentation for precise customization. The ability to vary figure placement with page parity makes this command particularly useful for creating well-structured, visually appealing documents.} \msg{Someone else}{Designation}{Message from another person}{Affiliation}{img/fancymag-msg1.png}{img/fancymag-m_sig.png}{3.5cm}{ \lettrine{H}{}ere \texttt{\textbackslash msg} is used to show the change of design with page number (odd to even or vice-versa)} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Other Detail %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newpage \fancyhead[LO]{\textcolor{accent}{\large\textbf{Fancymag}}} \fancyhead[RE]{\textcolor{accent}{\large\textbf{Fancymag}}} \fancyhead[RO]{\textcolor{accent}{\large\textbf{\thepage}}} \fancyhead[LE]{\textcolor{accent}{\large\textbf{\thepage}}} {\fontsize{15}{15}\selectfont \textbf{\textcolor{accent}{\textsf{{Font Availability Note}}}}}\\ \begin{tikzpicture} \draw[fill={rgb,1:red,0;green,0;blue,0.7}, draw=none] (0, 0) rectangle (5cm, 0.15cm); \end{tikzpicture} \vskip 0.4cm \albumphoto{Font Availability Note}{2024}{img/fancymag-di.png} \section*{Font Availability Note} This package requires LuaLaTeX and uses fonts bundled locally in the \texttt{fonts/} folder.
