Hi all! This worked in MkII but doesn't in MkIV. Did something changed? Cheers, Tim \starttext \input knuth \placefigure[left]{}{\externalfigure[figurename]} \input knuth \placefigure[inner]{}{\externalfigure[figurename]} \input knuth \stoptext

What do you want to do? Place it in the margin? \placefigure[inleft]{}{\externalfigure[figurename]} Marco

No. I want to place the figure to the left of the text if it is on a
odd page and to the right of the text if it is on a even page. Thus
the same effect "left" and "right" have as keywords, but depending on
the page it is on.
Cheers,
Tim

With the “inner” and “outer” keywords context uses the “left” and “right” locations dependent on the page. The feature doesn’t work in MkIV because two commands are processed in the wrong order. Wolfgang

Pitty. I used it a lot in a project I'm porting to MkIV. Will it be
fixed someday?

It depends on Hans, I’ll send him a mail about the problem.
