À propos de ことになっている
ことになっている is an alternation of ことになる, a grammar point showing that something has been decided by someone other than the speaker. It is a combination of the nominalizing use of こと (for creating noun-phrases), and the ている-form of the う-Verb なる 'to become'. The primary difference between ことになる and ことになっている is that the latter focuses more on that something is 'expected to (A)', or 'scheduled to (A)'. In other words, it is 'becoming that (A)', but has not actually happened yet.
This structure is often used after either the る or ない versions of verbs, in order to highlight an action which is either 'not expected/scheduled' to occur, or 'expected/scheduled' to occur. Let's take a look at the 'scheduled to' meaning first.
When indicating that something is 'expected to (A)', this is an example of ている's use for expressing habitual or ongoing actions/states that reoccur under some specific set conditions.

There’s an example with “いろいろと引ひかれるので”
Could someone explain why is there a と? Is it a part of いろいろ?ljoekelsoey
いろいろと is the adverb form of いろいろ
Do you have the full sentence there?mrnoone
@Kert
Like @ljoekelsoey says, いろいろと is an adverb form of いろいろ.
The と is the quotation particle, but with its meaning extended/abstracted to expressions that are not simple quotations of speech.It is common with words that mimic sound (there are lots of those in Japanese!) - onomatopoeia.
Example:
どんどんと
As you can see, the と can be often omitted! (except when the “sound” is not repeated)The と function has been also extended to words that depict bodily feelings, psychological states that are not actual sounds at all, basically something even more abstract. So you can find also words like:
すっとする (to feel refreshed)I hope it helps a bit
Cheer...
