Re: [NTG-context] Caption placement in margin

31 Aug 2016

      Dear Mikael,

thanks for your reply!  Indeed, one has to add this second specifier, but only middle produces a sensible result.  Both top and bottom override the outermargin, so there is probably something wrong.

Regarding \setupfloatcaption and \setupcation, there is no difference.  In base/mkiv/strc-flt.mkvi you can find the following definitions:

\let\setupcaption \setupfloatcaption
\let\setupcaptions\setupfloatcaption

Cheers, Henri

Dear list,
I was trying to place float captions in the margin, which according to setup-en.pdf should work with location=outermargin, but it doesn't.  The MWE below reproduces this on TL 2016 and on http://live.contextgarden.net/.  Please fix.
Cheers, Henri

\setupfloatcaption
  [figure]
  [location=outermargin]
\starttext
\placefigure
  [top]
  {The famous dutch cow!}
  {\externalfigure[cow]}
\stoptext

I have never noticed the setup \setupfloatcaption before, but I think
you have to add a top/middle/bottom or so to the outermargin, like
\setupfloatcaption[figure][location={outermargin,middle}]
\starttext
\placefigure
  [top]
  {The famous dutch cow!}
  {\externalfigure[cow]}
\stoptext
Another option might be to use \setupcaption (somebody could perhaps
tell the difference between \setupfloatcaption and \setupcaption?)
\setupcaption[figure][
location={outermargin,middle},
align=flushleft,
width=\marginwidth,
]
\starttext
\showframe%just to show where it ends up
\placefigure
  [top]
  {The famous dutch cow!}
  {\externalfigure[cow]}
\stoptext
