Hello,
I was trying to use \startfiguretext to place a second graphics within the figuretext. This makes the main graphics disappear:
\starttext \startfiguretext [left] {none} {\externalfigure[graph1][width=2.8in]} text text more text \placefigure [here] {none} {\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]} \stopfiguretext \stoptext
The result should look like
graph1 text graph1 text graph1 graph2 graph1 graph2
but graph1 1 doesn't show anymore (not even on another page).
Is this a mistake of mine, should I use something else (tables? -- never tried so far), or a missing feature?
You want the 'impossible': both use the figure floater so the first one is forgotten when the second is encountered; tables are a solution, or maybe: \useMPlibrary[dum] \setupcolors[state=start] \setuplayout[backspace=8cm,leftmargin=6cm,width=middle,cutspace=2cm] \starttext \placefigure [leftmargin,reset] {none} {\externalfigure[graph1][width=\leftmarginwidth]} \input ward \placefigure [here] {none} {\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]} \input hawking \stoptext \useMPlibrary[dum] \setupcolors[state=start] \setuplayout[backspace=8cm,leftmargin=6cm,width=middle,cutspace=2cm] \starttext \placefigure [leftmargin,reset] {none} {\externalfigure[graph1][width=\leftmarginwidth]} \input ward \placefigure [here] {none} {\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]} \input hawking \stoptext
The new web site is great. Now that I can see what the manuals are about, I am condemned to try it all out. It has already cost me this afternoon :)
