Dear list,
I want to have the effect I get with \placefigure[margin] but I want it
_always_ in the left margin instead of the right margin where it ends up by
default. I have tried several other keys but with leftmargin, inleft the
figure is not put in the top of the page, "independent of the text". Can I
fix this with some setup?
Small test file:
\setupmarginblocks
  [location=left]
...
\starttext
\input tufte
\placefigure[leftmargin][none]{With the key
leftmargin}{\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm]}
\input tufte
\placefigure[inleft][none]{With the key
inleft}{\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm]}
\input tufte
\placefigure[margin][none]{With the key
margin}{\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm]}
\input tufte
% This is the way I want it, but I want it in the left margin instead
\stoptext
Wolfgang

Thank you very much for your fast reply, Wolfgang. That is what I looked
for. However, a new problem appeared now. The example file

\setuppapersize[A5][A5]

\setuplayout[
footer=0cm,
header=0.6cm,
headerdistance=0.2cm,
footerdistance=0cm,
topspace=1cm,
backspace=4cm,
leftmargin=3cm,
rightmargin=0cm,
leftmargindistance=0.5cm,
height=fit,
width=fit,
]

\setupmarginblocks[location=left]

\starttext
\showlayout

\placefigure[margin][none]{With the key
margin}{\externalfigure[cow][width=3cm]}
\input tufte

\stoptext

does not work as intended for me. The layout looks OK if I read the
\showlayout output correctly, but the cow is not put entirely in the
margin, but sticks out outside the page. I attach the output of the code
above.

Best regards, Mikael
