Element functions can be customized with
set

rules.Skews content.
Skews an element in horizontal and/or vertical direction. The layout will
act as if the element was not skewed unless you specify reflow: true
.
Example
#skew(ax: -12deg)[
This is some fake italic text.

Settable parameters can be set using the

rule, changing the default value used thereafter.Whether the skew transformation impacts the layout.
If set to false
, the skewed content will retain the bounding box of
the original content. If set to true
, the bounding box will take the
transformation of the content into account and adjust the layout accordingly.
Default value: false

Hello #skew(ay: 30deg, reflow: true, "World")!
