Hi,
dunno, but it seems, that there is really something wrong. Here using: ConTeXt ver: 2007.01.18 12:57 MKII fmt: 2007.1.19 int: english/english
\starttext \input tufte % \placefigure[here,left]{A figure}{\framed[width=3cm,height=4cm]{Image}} \placefigure[here,left]{A cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=3cm,height=4cm]} \blank {\em This will mess up the rest.} \input tufte \stoptext
I changed the sample slightly. With and without \em the cow is placed on top of the textblock. This happens also with [here,left] and [here,right] If you withdraw the {This will mess up the rest.} the figure is placed correctly with inner, left, right! If you remove the braces and \em it works also adding \bgroup of \start and \egroup resp. \stop will not help.
\em This will mess up the rest. \tf \input tufte
gives the expected result.
\dontleavehmode finally gives the correct output of the original sample.
as said ... side floats hook into everypar, switch output routine etc etc; such things don't come naturally and for free; maybe some day when we have more control ...
