Re: [NTG-context] caption in margin

self-answering (for the record) rightmargin / leftmargin has to be used in combination with an additional position keyword (low, middle, key), otherwise the caption is missing. I think a default position (low) would be nice in this case. Best Michael this works: \useMPlibrary[dum] \starttext \showframe \setupcaption [figure][] \placefloat[][]{default}{\externalfigure[dummy][]} \setupcaption [figure][location={rightmargin,low}] \placefloat[][]{right}{\externalfigure[dummy][]}

I want to place the caption of floats in the margin. I thought the locationparameter of setupcaption can be used to do this. But it doesnt work.

What am I missing? Thanks Michael
