Side caption in floats

Side caption in floats

[Tobias Burnus]

Hello,

I want to a normal caption next to a float:

##########
##########
########## Fig. 1: Some object desc.
########## in this caption.

where the text should be bottom aligned unless the text is much longer:

########## Fig. 2: Some textual
########## description to a rather
           small figure.


Using \startfiguretext[], I get something similar, but without "Fig 1".
And \placefigure[....] does not seem to offer this option either.

I found it: \setupcaptions[location={low,right}]
(I was wrongly looking at \placefigure.)

But there is a buglet: texshow only lists location= "top bottom none
high low middle" and misses left/right.

Hi Tobias,

I found in page-flt also the next keywords:

- outermargin
- innermargin
- leftmargin
- rightmargin
- lefthanging
- righthanging
- outer
- inner
- left
- right

I seems you can use them only in combination with the location
parameters low, high and middle.
