Re: [NTG-context] 2 basic questions on placefigure options
Hi Hans, did you find something into it? Steffen

After reading the different manuals two questions still stay unanswered:
1. Is it true that a figure with text flowing around it (placefigure option left/right) has always to start with a beginning of a paragraph, so that it is not possible to place it in the middle of a text when it is mentioned there?
2. Isn't it possible to make a kind of combination between the placefigure options top and left (for example), so that a small picture can have text floating around it but it is placed at the top of the page (like big landscape formats would be with the top option)?
I hope I just missed something...
1. indeed
2. should not be too difficult, i'll look into it
Hans
Great, thank you.
Then (2) could be a bit of a practical alternative to the missing of (1).

Suggested syntax: \placefigure[{left,2}] or \placefigure[left, hang 2] In fact, for these kind of things (keyword + number)you don't to support = key=value pair, do you? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
