Hi All, I am working on a text that contains many combined figures, some side by side, ?some arranged vertically. I use, following ?ConTeXt, an excursion?, \startcombination[1*2] and \startcombination[2*1] respectively. The first one works, the second doesn?t, that is, it also places the figures one above the other. It happens both with the ?MacTeX?-version of ConTeXt and with

minimals. What can I do to place two figures side by side with a single caption?
Both variants work for me.
\starttext \placefigure{some title} {\startcombination[1*2] {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{} {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{} \stopcombination} \placefigure{some title} {\startcombination[2*1] {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{} {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{} \stopcombination} \stoptext

For me normally \startcombination[2*1] .. works. MKII; Side by side with a single caption. Please tell me if I didnt understand your problem.

Thanks to Mojca and Tom, With Mojca’s commands, {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}, it works for me too. But I do not want the figures framed. When I replace that piece with {\externalfigure[NameofFigure]}, the figures are placed vertically, both with [2*1] and with [1*2]. I have uploaded a folder with a small testfile, which on my Mac shows this behaviour, as you can see in the pdf. (For convenience I have entered the two possibilities in the testfile, one of them commented out.) It can be downloaded from http://web.me.com/blackstone.robert/filechute/Combining_Figures.zip. Maybe there are some other errors in the file that I do not know of. Thanks for the attention. Best regards, Robert Blackstone
