Thank you Wolfgang. I had to change .5\localhsize to .5\textwidth for it to work here (and scale down the cow to make it fit in the barn.)

I am looking into combinations to center the graphic in the second x box, and make a \setupcombination[mycombination] similar to \defineparagraph[Mypar] to reduce typing.
\definecombination[john][nx=2,ny=1,width=.5\textwidth]

\startcombination[john]
    {...}{}
    {...}{}
\stopcombination
\tbox is new to me. Is that a ConTeXt macro of TEX \vtop{\hbox}?
The command changes the vertical position of the content (by putting it into an \hbox and changing the height/depth values).

\setupblackrules[width=2cm,height=2cm]

\setuplayout[grid=yes]\showgrid

\starttext
XXX      {\blackrule}
XXX \tbox{\blackrule}
XXX \bbox{\blackrule}
XXX
\stoptext

Wolfgang
