Hallo Wolfgang!
This works. How do you find your peaces of wisdom?
Im not a TeXnician or a Texacker, more a TeX kiddie [1] and looked only the ConTeXt module where \placefloat is defined and searched for the command which is responsible for the numbermechanism.
But I have not understand the whole figurenumber thing.
Me too.
It is obviously (my example shows this), that there must be a hidden number.
What is its name? How can this number be influenzed?
Search for \preparefloatnumber in page-flt.tex
What is 'checked' or 'not checked' in the above option?
Try my example with checked and nochekced.
And why does this produce the effect I wanted?
it's rather comples
- float numbers indeed use a number
- but when places, this number is checked against the order in which the floats were flushed, for which their final position on the page is used
- clone figures using the same number most be treated as well
- when on everloads the low level number, this mechanisme is to be bypassed

Hallo Wolfgang, you can see a bad sideeffects by figurenumber=nocheck in my example <example> \setupfloats[numbering=nocheck] \starttext \placefigure{}{\framed{Blub}} \placefigure[page][]{}{\framed{Bautz}} \placefigure{}{\framed{Bla}} This were \rawnumber[figure] figures by now! \setnumber[figure]{8} We want to count on with \rawnumber[figure]. \placefigure{}{\framed{Plong}} figurenumber is incremented to \rawnumber[figure]. \stoptext </example> The number of the figures are set as they appear in the text and this did not work well when one figure is set later as another one typed later in your code.
