Hi Andreas,

Though not a wizzard ... Did you try to use the \setupcaption :

\setupcaptions
[location=top|bottom|none|high|low|middle,
 width=fit|broad|max|dimension,
 minwidth=fit|dimension,
 headstyle=normal|bold|slanted|boldslanted|type|cap|small...|command,
 style=normal|bold|slanted|boldslanted|type|cap|small...|command,
 number=yes|no,
 inbetween=command,
 align=left|middle|right|no,
 conversion=numbers|characters|Characters|romannumerals|Romannumerals,
 way=bytext|by*section,
 separator=text,
 command=command,
 distance=dimension]

May be you need to use this command in connection with the figures in
question. May be a \bgroup \egroup around the setupcommand together with the
placefigure command helps to keep everything local. Probably you want to
write a macro which saves typeing....
