Hi, I'm quite new to ConTeXT, so excuse me if the solution is obvious. I'm trying to typeset a document with three columns which contains _a lot_ of graphics, most of which are pretty small, about one third of a column. Unfortunately, while \placefigure[left,hang] works fine with one column, the text doesn't float around the picture when using two or more columns, so when I do ------ \starttext \startcolumns[n=2] \placefigure[left,hang]{none}{\externalfigure[somepic][width=1.6cm]} sometext \stopcolumns \stoptext ------ "sometext" appears in the second column, instead of next to the figure in the first column. To get an impression of what I want to achive you might try the following link: http://213.239.210.141/cgi-bin/lex.pl?titel=David%20Lynch&db=Berlin&id=58,165,166,638,2298,3749,6687,6889,8070,10392,11347,12117,14491,15640 While this comes close to what I mean (it's done in LaTeX), there are some limitations in LaTeX which make the job very painful, one of which is that it's impossible to have floats in columns for larger pictures that span one column (this works fine in Context). Am I just missing something? Ok, if that was too easy, here is the tough problem: *Actually* I would like to let the small pictures float _within_ the paragraph, so that if, say, the paragraph starts three lines before the end of the column, the picture would be set after the first three lines of the paragraph (and thus in the next column). I've experimented with writing \pdflastypos to logfiles, analysing them with a perl script, changing automatically the TeX-File and rerunning latex for days, but the results are ... well, ok, but not perfect. Thanks in advance for any hints, Christof Meigen
