2012-12-04 Hans Hagen: Hi Hans,
As an experiment I've added some trickery. But keep in mind that messing with numbers is never 100% foolproof. So, for the moment you can say
\ctxlua{structures.lists.autoreorder = true}
till we're sure about what level of control is needed. Beta later today.
Thank you for the quick fix. It works for the minimal example, but it fails in my document. Defining custom float types seems to break the auto reordering. \useMPlibrary [dum] \setupfloat [figure] [default=top] \definefloat [newfigure] [newfigures] [figure] \ctxlua{structures.lists.autoreorder = true} \starttext \input knuth \startplacefigure \externalfigure [dummy] \stopplacefigure \startplacenewfigure \externalfigure [dummy] [width=10cm, height=16cm] \stopplacenewfigure \startplacefigure \externalfigure [dummy] \stopplacefigure \stoptext Marco
