It's a pretty common effect and looks like: xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx PPPPPP xxxxxxxx PPPPPP xxxxxxxxxxxx Where x is the text and P is a picture. I am halfway there by specifying a negative "margin" in \setupfloats and using a "right" or "left" float. This gets the text in the proper position. What I need to do is to move the float a certain amount to the right or left. I have tried making a "top" specification of "\vbox\bgroup\hskip Xpc\bgroup\vbox\bgroup" in my \setupfloat definition (and a "bottom" definition to close the groups). Is this what "top" and "bottom" are for? I must admit that I am not familiar with ConTeXt's float mechanism. I hope that this is clear to people. Any help is welcome. Regards, Erik Hetzner
