In columnsets "bottom" has no effect.
When I use “bottom” in our example context reserves space for the figure at the bottom but the figure itself doesn’t appear.
Indeed lrbt does place the figure at the bottom. The struggle is, that I have to be able to place the figure as well left as right aligned. So the option rlbt should do this, but doesn't. All together I came then to the conclusion that one should place the float at the bottom with 'bots' and add an offset. But maybe I miss something... Th solution I have now is \startcolumnset \placefigure[lrbt][]{none}{\offset[x=1cm]{\externalfigure[fake][width=2\textwidth,height=3cm]}} % for moving the float to the right \stopcolumnset
\startcolumnset \placefigure[lrbt][]{none}{\externalfigure[fake][width=2\textwidth,height=3cm]} % for a left aligned float. \stopcolumnset
Why don’t you stretch the figure the whole width of the two columns and the distance between them. I saw in the manual a example where Hans defined a command \Two which does this. Wolfgang
