Hmmm, I probably was to quick. Does not really work in my real document... I'll try to solve the issue now by integrating the notes into the caption. Let's see if the authors accept it. Anyway, maybe that would be a nice topic for the monthly context chat?

Thanks, Max! That's very neat, and it indeed works in my use case.

Can anyone see any drawbacks here?

Best, Denis

What's the current state of affairs regarding footnotes in floats? Both version in the example below don't quite work... (Ideally, the note should be on the page with the float and the caption, but the numbering should also be adjusted.)

We can completely abuse a bunch of different ConTeXt features to ensure that the footnote numbers are always in the page order.

% New Code \unprotect

\startluacode userdata.visual_order = 0 userdata.input_order = 0 userdata.save_data = job.passes.define("saved_footnotes") userdata.previous_data = job.passes.getcollected("saved_footnotes")

interfaces.implement { name = "set_footnote_number", actions = function () userdata.input_order = userdata.input_order + 1

local input_index = userdata.input_order local page_index = userdata.previous_data[input_index]

if page_index then structures.counters.set("footnote", 1, page_index - 1) end end } \stopluacode

\def\save_footnote_data#1{% \latelua{ userdata.visual_order = userdata.visual_order + 1 userdata.save_data[#1] = userdata.visual_order }% }

\let\old_footnote=\footnote

\starttexdefinition protected footnote #1 \begingroup \clf_set_footnote_number

\def\insert##1\bgroup##2\egroup{ \normalexpanded{ \noexpand\save_footnote_data {\cldcontext{userdata.input_order}} } \normalinsert##1{##2} }

\old_footnote{#1} \endgroup \stoptexdefinition

\protect

% Original Example

\starttext

\footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}

\input ward

\startplacefigure[title={asdfasdf\footnote{test 1}}] \externalfigure[cow.pdf] \stopplacefigure

\footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}

\startplacefigure[title={asdfasdf\footnote{test 2}}] \externalfigure[cow.pdf][height=10cm] \stopplacefigure

\footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}

\page \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}

\input ward

\startplacefigure[title={asdfasdf\footnote{test 1}}] \externalfigure[cow.pdf] \stopplacefigure

\footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}

% (Can't use postponingnotes) % \startpostponingnotes \startplacefigure[title={asdfasdf\footnote{test 2}}] \externalfigure[cow.pdf][height=10cm] \stopplacefigure % \stoppostponingnotes

\footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \stoptext

Here, we save a mapping between each footnote's index in the input and its index in the output to the .tuc file. The code is definitely not pretty, but works well enough for the sample file provided.
