Hi,
sorry, the next looks so simple, it's probably an often answered thing (I just could not find the answer anywhere…)
Why is there a little gap above the figure, though it should be "top". How to avoid it?
\starttext \showframe \placefigure[top]{}{\externalfigure[../Figures/Test][frame=off]} \stoptext
The gap is the difference between the height of a typical line (\blank) and TeX's \topskip parameter. That explains it, but I do not see a nice way to correct the behaviour. Best, Taco
