Hi,
today I updated from ConTeXt 2015.11.19 to the recent Beta 2017.03.26 16:15.
I noticed that my textbackgrounds now interfere with margin pictures, that is,
if there is a margin picture at the side of a textbackground, then the
textbackground is suppressed for the entire height of the margin picture.
Here is a minimal:
\setuplayout [
leftmargin=0mm,
rightmargin=45mm,
height=fit,
width=fit,
]
\definetextbackground [test]
\starttext
\placefigure [margin]{}{}
\starttextbackground [test]
\dorecurse{3}{\readfile{ward}{}{}}
\stoptextbackground
\stoptext
With the ConTeXt Current from 2016.05.19 13:43 I don’t see the issue, everything’s fine there.
Here are two screenshots:
Desired behavior (Ctx Current): http://d.pr/i/Xgtc
Non-desired behavior (Ctx Beta): http://d.pr/i/1gyi
Is this a bug?
\definetextbackground [test] [location=paragraph]
\setupfloat[figure][freeregion=no]
Thank you, Hans, this works absolutely great!
Two little questions:
I have set it now globally for _all_ floats as \setupfloats[freeregion=no].
At a first glance it doesn’t seem to cause any issues.
Is there any pitfall when setting it globally, which I might not be aware?
Is 'freeregion=no' an option that is meant to stay, or is it a workaround for the recent betas?
it will stay (being a feature)

Hans
