Hello again, I need to place several figures side by side (e.g. pictures of persons). I know I can use combinations, but I need the figures with captions included in the usual numbering of figures and not one number & caption for the combination. How can I achieve this? Best, Hraban

Use a float combination: \useMPlibrary[dum] \starttext \input ward \startplacefigure[title={Dummy}] \externalfigure[dummy] \stopplacefigure \input jojomayer \startplacefigure[location=none] \startfloatcombination[2*1] \startplacefigure[title={Left dummy}] \externalfigure[dummy] \stopplacefigure \startplacefigure[title={Right dummy}] \externalfigure[dummy] \stopplacefigure \stopfloatcombination \stopplacefigure \input weisman \stoptext Wolfgang

Thank you very much! It works like it should. I learn something new about ConTeXt every day. Hraban
