Hi Bernhard, Did you ever try \startcombination? I feel like it could solve your problem, but not sure...
there is a nice LaTeX package called floatrow. Most of the things what it does you can do with ConTeXt much more easily expect (i think) one thing: placing more than one picture in a given width with automatic rescaling of the images so all images in one row have the same height. This feature is really handy for me. Maybe there is something in ConTeXt which does the same and i´m missing something? Regards, Vyatcheslav
Hi,
yes i´m aware of \startcombination and also \startfloatcombination but i think this has not that automatic feature which i described (the height of the pictures will be adjusted automatically so all pictures in one row have the same height - the outcome of the height is so not really predictable)
normally one will have categories of graphics, so you can do things like (one of the oldest mechanisms) \starttext \defineexternalfigure[whatever][height=3cm] \startcombination {\externalfigure[cow.pdf] [whatever]} {a} {\externalfigure[mill.png][whatever]} {b} \stopcombination \stoptext it's trivial to add a few more inheritance features but on the other hand one quickly ends up in fuzzy behaviour Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
