How to ignore right margin for a block?

Questions
1

I would like that the lines of a block of code (I mean raw ```...``` text, not a Typst code block) continue over the margin instead of being wrapped to the next line, since they are just slightly larger than the lines of my document and reformatting the code would look bad. Thanks!

This might depend on your specific document styles, but you could wrap the code block in another block with larger (or even infinite) width.

// (Just for making it more visible)
#show raw.where(block: true): set block(fill: silver, inset: 0.5em)

#block(width: calc.inf * 1pt)[
  ```py
  def this_is_very_long(param: 0):
    return "Hello World"
  ```
]

You could also do this with a show rule on raw.where(block: true), but then show-set rules on block may be applied multiple times, which may be unintended.

The correct way, if wrapping isn’t allowed, is to just reduce the font size for all or just a single code block.

#show raw.where(block: true): set text(0.9em)
