Hi,

I've been looking into the various ConTeXt resources to figure out how to place a colon between the figure number and the caption text within the document, as follows:

Figure 1: This is a figure caption

Unfortunately I have not yet found it and am wondering if anyone can provide a clue as to how this is accomplished.

Weird ConTeXt hacks, issue #42:

\def\floatcaptionsuffix{:}

...

Also, how can I left justify the caption text within the document as follows:

Figure 1: This is a figure caption that is too long to fit on a single line of text

Any help is appreciated ...

Weird ConTeXt hacks, issue #43:

\placefigure[here]{\framed[location=top,align=justify,frame=off] {This is a\crlf hanging text}}{Image contents}

(This will wreak havoc on the List of Figures)

think chinese: (see lang-chi for examples) \starttext \start \setuplabeltext[figure={figure\enspace,\thinspace:}] \placefigure{whatever}{} \stop \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
